In this talk Maxim will describe a data centered approach for representing data model, which enables easy testability, reactive behavior and does not stand in the way.

At the end of this session you should have a better understanding of Voiceover, the tool that blind and sight-impaired users rely on every day to use your apps. You'll be able to run a quick accessibility audit on your app to find places in your app that could use improvement. You should be able to come back to work and speak to why it's important to invest in accessibility and have concrete steps on how to make your app easier to use.

Codable is also being adopted in server-side Swift. Learn how to write type-safe Swift web APIs yourself, without having to worry about HTTP content types, headers, and parsing. Easily extract the query parameters from web requests and handle them appropriately in just a few lines of code. Ian will also mention advanced topics like writing your own Encoder or Decoder to convert to and from a custom format. Finally, we’ll look at new enhancements to Codable, coming in Swift 4.1, which will make things even simpler for app developers.

This approach can leave many an experienced developer wondering "is it worth it?" and becoming wary of its use. In this session we take a fresh cut - we pick up the story where other 'Architecture' approaches end and learn about a powerful approach to maintaining the separation of storyboard and view controller that delivers the promise of flexibility and less configuration in our code.

This talk will share a technique that makes powerful use one of the oldest but least understood design patterns in the book coupled with the modern language features of Swift for a story with an ending you don't want to miss!

Learn how to make Storyboards an even more compelling tool that instead of consigning to the trash can be instead at the heart of a flexible architecture for a modern app.

The agenda of the workshop includes:

• Clean Architecture Concepts: Brief introduction in order to understand the pieces of the architecture and their implementation in iOS.
• Implementation of the Interactor: Implement the first user story: show a list of data elements to the user. Define the first version of the immutable entities and transform them into immutable structures with the data to display.
• Implementation of the Presenter/event handler: Creation of the presenter that will talk to the view and present the data.
• Implementation of the View: How to make a dumb, but still useful view.
• A basic implementation of the entity gateway: Defer the decision of the persistence framework for later. Implement the minimum functionality in a basic object. Implications of the repository pattern.
• Connect the pieces and make it all work: Understand the way the pieces are interconnected and its memory management implications. Implement the required object, modify the App delegate and make it work with the storyboard.
• Review, Questions & Answers

Workshop Requirements

Please make sure to bring your laptop with latest version of Xcode installed and running.

You’ll be looking at prototyping & writing tests in Xcode Playgrounds before migrating to a project, the benefit of writing various types of tests and using 3rd party frameworks.

Workshop Requirements

Please make sure to bring your MacBook with latest version of Xcode.

In this talk, you will learn about several speech analysis approaches that help you in this challenging task, from Apple's brand new Core ML and SiriKit, to Google's Dialogflow and Facebook's Wit.ai, along with some well known Natural Language Processing algorithms like the TF-IDF.

You will learn how to implement Codable, from the basics to the more complex use cases that will bring you all much relief, including CodingKeys and custom implementation of Encodable and Decodable. Whether you’re parsing simple JSON that maps perfectly to your object, or the more likely scenario where the JSON object barely resembles your app’s data models, Codable makes parsing and mapping JSON a concise, straightforward task. You’ll leave this talk with an understanding of why Codable is cool and how you can use it to make your Xcode life much easier.

This talk is built from two parts - first part is about how you can use existing Xcode project options and structure to make your builds faster. The second part is focused on how you can modularise our codebase by splitting your code to logic and passive views. By doing that, you can achieve situation in which your modules will be smaller (they will compile faster) and you will be able to test your logic code in a quicker way (you will be able to test them as macOS frameworks, because they will no longer be dependent on UIKit).

Eliasz's goal is to not only share with you how to decrease build times, but also show that the development experience that you have while writing code is even more important than having low build times in general. In this case - ability to get faster feedback loop by testing code as macOS frameworks gave Eliasz high productivity boost that was more important than having low build times in general.

How can we balance continuous technical innovation with the correctness and rigor mandated by regulatory requirements, whilst still keeping the user at the heart of the product we are building? And what does this look like on iOS?

Discover how one London startup is answering these questions, and the lessons learnt along the way.

Dan Cutting will share with you the techniques he is applying at Schibsted to achieve highly flexible, well tested mobile software using the 'Remix' approach.

During Esteban's Talk you will learn - What Connectivity Framework is, what can it do & how it works? How to use it to interconnect different devices - How can it be used to interconnect a user’s multiple devices (📱, 💻 & ⌚) Esteban will also share how developers can interconnect their apps for a same user but different devices; providing a nice «hand-off» experience between iphone and tv for example. - What can be accomplished by the framework and benefits for your apps (The audience we'll get a list of important features the framework can accomplish and also some examples of how it can be integrated and benefit most apps.)

In this talk, you’ll learn what the term "machine learning" really means, investigate several ML modelling techniques and then see how to build a machine learning model from scratch. You'll then investigate how Core ML fits into today’s machine learning, and finish by showing how you can use Core ML to run complex, on-device image processing models.

Pravara will share with you the answers to all these questions. You will learn why you have to follow those steps to create certificates, how can you use simple command to look inside the developer certificate, and what plugins/options are available to read provisioning profiles. You will also learn what a certificate contain, how Apple uses it to verify the Apps. This talk will help you better understand the problems when they arise and fix them quicker.

In this talk Alexander will share with you what he has found during his investigations on the topic and will show different concepts to work with this component. You will also learn what you can find by disassemble a UIKit code, what private APIs can give you and an easy approaches to control presentation of the status bar.

Sam will share with you a 5-minute crash course on current IoC and DI issues, before looking at a highly useful, bespoke approach for managing dependencies in a real-world app that’s currently in development. Fast-paced, and devoid of useful details—it’s everything you’ve ever wanted from a lightning talk!
