Expert guidance, battle-tested open source tools, advanced AI skills, exclusive videos, and a community of likeminded engineers.
Expert-crafted AI skill documents for building long-lasting Swift applications.
Design, test, and evolve applications using the same principles, libraries, and techniques we use every day at Point‑Free.
It’s time to go beyond the basics with a deep exploration of isolation, noncopyable, and nonescapable types. But before we get into all the nitty gritty details we will demonstrate why understanding these topics matters, starting with a preview of isolation in Composable Architecture 2.0.
We celebrate 8 years of Point-Free with a live stream! We take our brand new “Point-Free Way” skill documents for a spin by building a Flashcards app powered by SQLiteData, and we give a sneak peek at “Composable Architecture 2.0,” a reimagining of our popular library.
We clean up our test suite and make use of the expectDifference helper, for precisely describing changes to state in an exhaustive fashion. We will then rapidly add test coverage using the forthcoming “Point-Free Way” skills documents. Finally, we will achieve the seemingly impossible by writing a test against iCloud sharing!
We dissect some of the most important and interesting topics in Swift programming frequently, and deliver them straight to your inbox.
We cover both abstract ideas and practical concepts you can start using in your code base immediately.
Download a fully-functioning Swift playground from the video so you can experiment with the concepts discussed.
We transcribe each video by hand so you can search and reference easily. Click on a timestamp to jump directly to that point in the video.
SQLite is one of the most well-crafted, battle-tested, widely-deployed pieces of software in history, and it’s a great fit for apps with more complex persistence needs than user defaults or a JSON file. This collection serves as an introduction to the basics of SQLite, as well as an exploration into more advanced topics and techniques for integrating SQLite into your applications.
SwiftUI may be all the rage these days, but that doesn’t mean you won’t occassionally need to dip your toes into the UIKit waters. Whether it be to access some functionality not yet available in SwiftUI, or for performance reasons (UICollectionView 😍), you will eventually find yourself subclassing UIViewController, and then the question becomes: what is the most modern way to do this?
SwiftUI is Apple’s declarative successor to UIKit and AppKit, and provides a wonderful set of tools for building applications quickly and effectively. It also provides a wonderful opportunity to explore problems around architecture and composition.
If you have ever created a binding using the get:set: initializer, you may want to reconsider. Doing so can hurt SwiftUI’s ability to animate your view. Luckily there is a better way. You can leverage @dynamicMemberLookup and subscripts to derive new bindings in a way that allows SwiftUI to propertly track where the binding came from.
SwiftData is not capable of filtering and sorting by raw representable enum properties in models. Predicates and sort descriptors will compile just fine when referencing enum properties, but it will crash at runtime.
SwiftData is not capable of sorting by boolean properties in models. And if you try to trick SwiftData to allow it, you will encounter runtime crashes.
Just became a subscriber! I'm binge watching episodes now! Great content! I'm learning so much from you guys. The repo for the site is the best go-to reference for a well done project and swift-web is something I am definitely going to use in my projects. Thanks for everything!
My new favourite morning routine is feeding 👶🏻 while watching @pointfreeco
Watching the key path @pointfreeco episodes, and I am like 🤯🤯🤯. Super cool
Their content pushes the boundary of my knowledge, and it's fun to watch!
Just finished the mini-series on enum properties by @pointfreeco! They pointed out what’s missing from enums in Swift and used SwiftSyntax to generate code to add the missing parts. Thanks for your work @stephencelis and @mbrandonw! #pointfree
After diving into @pointfreeco series reading Real World Haskell doesn’t seem all that intimidating after all. Major takeaway: the lesser is word “monad” is mentioned the better 😅
Really love this episode - thanks @mbrandonw + @stephencelis! Understanding Swift types in terms of algebraic data types is such an elegant way of seeing the # of possible values your Swift types will represent 🤯 #Simplifyallthethings #GoodbyeComplexity
So many concepts presented at #WWDC19 reminded me of @pointfreeco video series. 👏👏 So happy I watched it before coming to San Jose.
@pointfreeco ❤️: Thank you! 🧠: … The brain can’t say anything. It is blown away (🤯)!
