iOS Dev Tools: SwiftUIX, Vapor, DevCleaner
The best tools at your fingertips.
Hey everyone! 👋
In preparing the newsletter this week, I noticed that I have shared the same tool two weeks in a row. Also, a few readers of the newsletter have informed me. My apologies and thanks to those who read and noticed my errors.
Although I try to avoid mistakes, they do happen from time to time. Once again, thank you for reading and supporting.
Let’s connect on X (ex-Twitter) & LinkedIn! 🤝
If you have a tool that solves a developer problem, I would love to help you reach iOS developers - hi@iosdev.tools
Scale up your snapshot tests, without the friction
Spending too much time maintaining snapshot tests? Screenshotbot works with your existing snapshot tests and stores your images. Say goodbye to Git LFS. Screenshotbot notifies you on pull-requests when snapshots change.
