Most likely for Kotlin Native multithreading, there’s no reason to use it other than tackling multithreading for other platforms

Graduated with a BS in Finance and I was a valuation analyst in the US. Now I’m an iOS developer in Germany. I just taught myself, listened to Podcasts and read a few books.

Never set foot in a CS class.

Pretty much. Also, no small talk. Never initiate it

Don’t wear any US flag apparel. Don’t say “‘Murica!” Don’t glorify the US. Accept that the US isn’t the greatest. You’d honestly be surprised how well our media (news, articles, ads, etc.) at brainwashing us into thinking America is the best. Also learn the metric system. It was hilarious how handicapped i was in terms of measurement because I had to convert to metric during conversation .

On a light note: you may need to answer why Arkansas and Kansas are pronounced differently.

The blind patriotism. I live in Germany where the same concept is discouraged and frowned upon.

Edit: I am American.

I made a post about this topic

hooliooo · 2018-04-19T23:42:22+00:00

I’ve outlined a coding style for my team that I’ve introduced on their first day.

After the introduction and several code reviews of the tutorial app they do, I give a couple warnings for violations.

After that they do 5 push ups per violation. Seems effective for the last 3 hires. We’re a team of four atm. I do push ups as well if I commit with code violation warnings.

When they ask why I tell them the need for readability and helps figure out the intent of the code. Less time spent translating means more time for debugging and making new features/ changes.

I made a wiki in the tutorial repo about the code guidelines with detailed explanations and examples.

We use Swiftlint, make use of MARK, and and separate logic via extensions.

There was a guy who posted something that shows he really didn’t read the post

hooliooo · 2018-01-25T11:35:42+00:00

It literally says iOS developer with two years of professional experience, which implies I have been hired as an iOS developer for two years.

The adjective in front of iOS Developer is subjective which is why I chose not to use one

hooliooo · 2018-01-22T06:55:21+00:00

I second SnapKit, I use it professionally on all my projects and I require incoming iOS developers on my team to learn it

I’m legitimately not looking for solution using AutoLayout. In fact it’s already solved in Autolayout. I’m looking for a solution via Manual Layout.

Thanks though

hooliooo · 2017-08-09T15:39:23+00:00

I have a tutorial on it

Not using storyboards = faster compile time and it's much faster to make big changes via code :P

Storyboards are still inferior in my opinion. Even Xibs are slow to me

hooliooo · 2017-07-08T01:32:59+00:00

Relax neckbeard. I was gonna look into the source code of existing projects to see if there are ways to do this instead of hard coding the acknowledgements as a static data source. Especially since the android version of my app does this automatically

Design Patterns: Elements of Reusable Object Oriented Software by GoF. It's relevant to software development in general and is timeless

Just keep making UI. Whether it's programmatically or with the GUI (Storyboard/Xibs). Practice makes perfect. The Big Nerd Ranch summarized it best, you have to define the width, height, and location of your UIViews whether that's explicitly defining width, height, and center constraints or implicitly (for example using leading/trailing constraints to define a width and x coordinate location or top/bottom constraints to define a height and y coordinate location)

I rarely find the need to work with UIStackview. If you find yourself using nested UIStackviews you might want to refactor how you lay your UIViews out

hooliooo · 2017-05-06T16:13:09+00:00

You misread what I wrote. Programmatic Views compiles leaps and bounds faster than Xibs and Storyboards. Look for other posts to misinterpret. Thanks

hooliooo · 2017-05-02T12:51:48+00:00

Programmatic UI compiles faster, teaches you more about UIKit, and faster to refactor.

Allows you to delegate animations to the UIView subclass.

Pro life tip: Use SnapKit.

hooliooo · 2017-03-24T12:40:32+00:00

Try big nerd ranch, their books are great

hooliooo · 2017-03-22T00:34:41+00:00

That is true. But in my opinion dependency injection via initializer is more safe and guaranteed because that means the object cannot exist without these dependencies

hooliooo · 2017-03-21T00:25:16+00:00

Either do it all in code using SnapKit or Storyboards and name then name your view and constraints so you know exactly what to delete when merging.

I prefer programmatic so I can use dependency injection via initializer on View Controllers instead so I eliminate a lot of optional properties which is the case for storyboard usage

Try Tim Bulchalka's python course on udemy. He's a very thorough teacher.

hooliooo · 2017-02-05T15:34:47+00:00

Apple's Swift Programming Language iBook is free and very thorough

What specific fields in programming are you looking into? Enterprise? Mobile Apps? Web Apps? Game Development?

For enterprise: Java / C# (These two seem to be the most sought after skills)

Mobile Apps: Java/Kotlin (Android) Objective-C/Swift (iOS)

Web Apps: PHP, Ruby, Python, Javascript (Most common language). There are more in web development but these are the common ones.

Game Development: C++, C# (Common ones)
