# Traditional Swedish Korvstoppning ## (Cramming)

# Let's go

# 1. Localized Strings

# Not only for localizing ### Gather all your texts in one place

# Rule 1 ### Know the language you localize in

# Rule 2 ### Localized strings are dependencies - keep track of your dependencies

# Demo ### SwiftGen

## Public Service Announcement ### If you use frameworks, alerts etc. - add L10n extensions to your app ###

# 2. Image Assets

# Once again... ### Images are dependencies - keep track of your dependencies

# Demo ### SwiftGen

# 3. Fonts

# Custom fonts can be a wonderful thing

# This is not about using the wrong fonts

# It is about handling fonts incorrectly

# Once again... ### Fonts are dependencies - keep track...we'll you get the point

# Demo ### SwiftGen

# Important! ### Remember to add the fonts in your Info.plist

# 4. Storyboards

# A.k.a. Navigation Driven Development

# One wrong turn..

# Friendly Advice ### Use xibs, but if you stick to storyboards...

# Demo ### SwiftGen

# Summary ### Strings, images, fonts, segues...do not rely on strings that can fail silently

# 5. Dependency Injection

# Brief discussion

# Demo ### Dip

# 6. The Final Dependency

### A lot of talk about dependencies tonight ### The same goes for your choice of IoC ### Do not make it a global dependency

# Demo

# 7. git

# Use it

# That's it

# Friendly advice ### Use git even for the smallest project

# Wanna push?

### Could pay for private GitHub ### SHOULD pay for private GitHub ### ...but there's a cheaper option

# Demo ### Dropbox repo

# 8. Xcode Code Snippets

# Hidden in plain sight

# Demo

# 9. The best method

## Hint: it's not this ``` dispatch_queue_t queue = dispatch_get_global_queue(DISPATCH_QUEUE_PRIORITY_DEFAULT, 0); dispatch_async(queue, ^{ // SYNCHRONOUS network request // Data processing dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^{ // UI update }); }); ```

## It's not even this ``` DispatchQueue.main.async { ... } ```

## It is: ``` { asyncStuff() } ~> { mainThreadStuff() } * ``` \* http://ijoshsmith.com/2014/07/05/custom-threading-operator-in-swift/

# Demo

# Let's make it a world standard!

# 10. CocoaPods Acknowledgement

# Be this guy

# Demo
