I strongly disagree having years of experience in both Objective-C and Swift codebases / products
- JMTQp8lwXL 6y agoDisagree on general software quality? I've been an iOS user for about a decade now. Seen a couple of 'bad' (extremely buggy) apps here and there, but the quality seems relatively constant over time (possible sample bias).
- jdmoreira 6y agoGreat product teams will build great products independently of Objective-C or Swift but you will need much less resources to deliver on the same quality using swift and modern frontend architectures. I would also doubt the majority of apps in the Appstore today are using swift at least in the sense that I mean it. It’s not enough to use swift you actually need to know how to model your problem well using its type system and that takes experience. A lot of devs simply focus in solving narrow problems without giving much thought to how much more strict they can be with the language.
