Assuming the grand parent comment is true to their word and they don’t mean it disparagingly, I think we can easily see what they mean.
After a quick glance here’s what’s being offered in this program:
- 1 year free of apple dev program (laughably little time in my view btw)
- seemingly 1 on 1 support with experienced devs to help you build your first app(s)
Yes, it’s good that being provided for underrepresented devs. But also, and I think this is what GP comment is asking, why isn’t this offered in a larger capacity?
As someone who paid Apple 400$ just to keep my dev license so people around the world could download my free apps while I was super poor in college.. I kinda feel where this person is coming from.
- nxobject 3y agoI agree with Apple nickle-and-diming in general – they talk about the "app economy" and the low barrier to entry into the App Store when it's annoyingly not so.
- lijok 3y ago> why isn’t this offered in a larger capacity? What GP is misunderstanding is that this isn’t a “here’s how to write good code” programme. This is a “what to do when you get told ‘a woman could never run a successful business’ in a VC meeting” programme.
