    The episode before WWDC24, wants and hopes for developers

    We are just a few days from WWDC24 as this Podcast hits the feed. I'm not making predictions; I'm making some sensible wishes and hopes for what we might get, mostly from the perspective of a developer.

    CoreData, CloudKit and user data sync, a few tips

    CoreData, CloudKit and user data sync, a few tips

    In this episode, I discuss a recent exploration and problem-solving situation with one of my apps that uses CloudKit to sync data across devices.
    CloudKit and iCloud are excellent ways to store a user's data and make it accessible across multiple devices. However, they come with some scenarios you need to account for.
    For example, have you coded to protect against a bad experience if the user is not logged into their account?
    Here are some tips in this episode with my real-world examples.

    Listener Question - How do we combat the rising tide of cross platform on mobile?

    Listener Question - How do we combat the rising tide of cross platform on mobile?

    Thanks for the suggestion on this topic. We often see folks asking why cross-platform is such a great idea, but we don't usually discuss why it can also be a bad idea and how we can promote native platform development.
    This can be incredibly challenging for companies that see the one code base for cross-platform development as reduced development time and cost without considering the long-term consequences.
