How to Test Private Variables in Swift Let's take a look at how we can use Swift's Mirror class to allow access to a class's private properties from our testing target.
DeepLinkr: How To Test Deep Links on iOS I’ve been hard at work on a new developer tool and I’m excited to announce its launch today. It’s called DeepLinkr [https://apps.apple.com/us/app/deeplinkr/id1586244217?mt=12] [https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqbHMtTE5LM1lKR2k3WHRSMUp2RVNzWktScXd3Z3xBQ3Jtc0tud1o1X0pqX1V2bFgxTXJuR1pCXzNMZkk5MXB3dTBTSkNxX0xDVU54VUp4dlI1dFFLVXVXMUZrOXBTWFRIQTNmMjZDV0FmQ2tZLXpQTF94ZHF4V0NmUWdEblZXbFFoUk5qV05wcGVWNTFoeFVyZUhzNA&q=https%3A%
Pull Request Checklist for iOS Developers In this article, I cover the checklist I use to ensure I create only high-quality, well-tested, and bug-free pull requests.
Functional Programming in Swift [Beginner's Guide | Swift 5 | 2021] Today, we’re going to take a look at functional programming and I’ll show you why it’s one of the best ways to write thread-safe and readable code and how it differs from your more traditional imperative programming.
Implementing Feature Flagging in iOS Today, we’re going to take a look at feature flagging in iOS. Though it’s a fairly intuitive idea, when done right, it opens the door to more robust functionality and improved app stability. Feature flagging is simply a means of hiding and showing specific features in an application

Understanding How UUIDs Are Generated Introduction You’ve likely used UUIDs in projects before and assumed them to be unique. Today, we’ll take a look at the main aspects of the implementation and understand why UUIDs are practically unique, though an incredibly small potential for duplication exists. The modern-day implementation of UUIDs can be
How Do Computers Generate Random Numbers? Anyone with any programming experience understands that computers are deterministic machines. If you provide the same input, you’ll always get the same output. That’s why having computers generate something by chance is trickier than it may seem. Computers use random numbers for everything from cryptography to gambling, generative
