    S4E9: Apple Does Sometimes Solve Problems (WWDC25 special)

    Mikaela and Paul are – or at least were – live at WWDC25! And dub-dub dominates the chat – what was announced, why it matters, what the concerns are, and what new features developers are excited to get their hands on. Recorded in front of a live audience! If you were there, have fun remembering what fluffs have been cut out in the edit. If you weren’ t: this is exactly how it went down in the room 🙂‍↕️

    S4E8: Mikaela doesn’t respect Paul

    With WWDC25 looming, Paul and Mikaela are as excited as everyone to discover the new features and tools we can use to make amazing new things… but let’s not get too distracted by the new shiny things. In this episode, as well as covering off the news, there’s hard-won advice for new Swift developers, and loads of different takes on how to (and whether to!) monetise your apps. Plus, is that… is that The Fruitful Trombone of Great Sadness parping a different tune…?

    S4E7: Progress over perfection

    To celebrate Global Accessibility Awareness Day, Mikaela and Paul recorded a special episode live at ARCtic Conference in Oulu, Finland, with a distinguished panel of accessibility champions: Rob Whitaker, Daniel Devesa Derksen-Staats and Klemens Strasse. If accessibility seems like an overwhelming subject, don’t panic; we show you not just why but also give you tips on how to get started with ensuring your apps are as accessible as possible — and remember the mantra, ‘progress over perfection’!

    S4E6: The Fruitful Trombone of Great Sadness

    Paul and Mikaela come to you live (-ish) from try! Swift Tokyo, where the air is filled with both cherry blossom and excitement about WWDC 2025! We’ve got advice for attending in-person events (and why we think you should), our first reactions to Swift 6.1 and Swiftly 1.0, plus, the long-running saga of whether Mikaela’s app Fruitful — which would be perfect for something like WWDC, Mikaela, just sayin’ — is finally done. Is it? You’ll have to listen to find out!

    S4E5: Could you just…?

    ‘Networking’ is a word to strike fear into the heart of any developer, and upsettingly we’re dealing with both types this episodes: talking to other humans at conferences, but mostly trying to coax computers to talk to each other too. Plus, our Open Ballot this episode is the trifling little matter of the major changes you’re hoping to see in Xcode, SwiftUI, SwiftData and more as WWDC25 rolls around.

    S4E4: Naming is hard

    Apparently, the secret to a great coding presentation is three Es. You’ll just have to listen to discover if this means Paul is advocating for consuming Class A drugs to get hyped or if they just, like, stand for something inspiring or something. Developers, developers, developers… Plus, as well as your traditional rundown of the news and upcoming conferences, this episode has excellent advice from Mikaela and from our wonderful community of Swift Over Coffee listeners on how to deal with imposter syndrome. Well, it’s quite good advice. Decent, at least.

    S4E3: The existence of Mikaela

    In this episode, we learn that the app that paid for Paul’s house hasn’t even been updated for iPhone X 😶‍🌫️ and Mikaela learns about some useful tools to help with the launch of the app that she absolutely, definitely, 100% is gonna debut in February. 😅 (Pretty sure she meant of 2025, but Paul neglected to press her on this point.) Plus, time is running out for EU trader status compliance (and some tips about keeping your personal phone number private), a big change to Swift, all the upcoming conferences (where, you know, Mikaela’s app would be incredibly useful…) and we turn the spotlight on some of the brilliant apps the Swift Over Coffee listeners are making.

    S4E2: Mikaela is a lesson

    Mikaela is joined by the most English-sounding Irishman you've ever heard for an intensive therapy session. We're talking paper cuts in Swift, those tiny annoyances that, sure, don't stop you in your tracks, but wouldn't it be nice if instead of having to cover ourselves in the coding equivalent of a hundred Band-Aids, Apple just… fixed? Please? Empathise, sympathise, and have a nice little scream into the void with us. Plus there's a roundup of conferences (running one? let us know!) and other Swift news, and we reveal Mikaela's One Weird Trick to actually shipping an app. Essential links from the episode: Fruitful: https://getfruitful.app Black Friday deals I: https://github.com/mRs-/Black-Friday-Deals Black Friday deals II: https://mjtsai.com/blog/2024/11/25/black-friday-2024/ Black Friday deals III: https://indieappsales.com Improving the approachability of data-race safety: https://forums.swift.org/t/prospective-vision-improving-the-approachability-of-data-race-safety/76183 James Dempsey’s Swift Virtuoso course: https://swift-virtuoso.com/ iOS Conf SG: https://www.iosconf.sg FOSDEM25: https://swiftlang.github.io/event-fosdem/ Mazie Conference: https://maize.dk/ Let’s visionOS: https://letsvisionos.swiftgg.team/page/ ARCtic Conference: https://arcticonference.com WebKit for SwiftUI: https://github.com/WebKit/WebKit/pull/36760 TelemetryDeck: https://dashboard.telemetrydeck.com/registration/organization?referralCode=MYYXAFU3ZWQHM2CJ (Mikaela’s affiliate link, to get 100k extra signals of the free plan) Write Great Accessibility Labels WWDC 19: https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2019/254 WebKit: https://github.com/WebKit/WebKit/pull/36760
