Announcing SlamIOSPod, my very first OpenSource CocoaPod Framework for Closure-based iOS UI.

An ongoing project, Slam uses Swift Closures to configure most UI elements, as well as handling user interaction.

Check it out! And please, forward this on. It is my first Open-Source attempt.

Ps. This is the first of two major Cocoapod Frameworks designed for quick development of IOS apps. Expect to see FleetIOSPod in the near future.

Come join me at the Swift Cloud Workshop on May 9 in Tyson’s Corner, VA.

A one day conference dedicated to Swift "Everywhere Else”, which I assume means Swift outside Apple ecosystem.

List of Mac/iOS/Swift Conferences

WWDC, Apple’s traditional conference, has become difficult to attend, and arguably not worth the effort.  For a Mac/iOS/Swift developer, what others conferences, large and small, are worth attending?  I am compiling a list of such events for this year. If you have one, please send me a note so I can add it to the list.  I will release the tally to everyone as it goes.  For example, I hope to attend the upcoming NYC try! Swift conference as well as the smaller iOSDevCamp.  Don’t forget international one nor smaller regional ones.  Thank you!

Hope springs eternal for some folks, no where more so than those dedicated to having Virtual Reality on the Mac.

Even I admit that Apple VR support has been dismal, but here is a site dedicated to this vision.

Before he continues with Functional Programming, he goes into the failure of Objected Oriented Programming.
