Recent Videos
Two weeks ago, I released a video on AutoClosures, a topic that I was quite unfamiliar with. I have said this before, but the best way for me to learn something is to force myself to teach it. That way, I have to really understand the topic and be able to explain it to someone else. I am quite pleased with how this video turned out.
This past weekend, I released the first of 3 videos on creating a reusable Network Manager class that will demonstrate best practices and can be dropped into any iOS project.

Upcoming Videos.
There will be 3 videos over the next 2 weeks. By the time you read this newsletter, you should have seen the release of the 2nd video in the Network Manager series and this will be followed by the third one next Sunday. After watching these 3 videos, you will have a solid understanding of how to create a reusable Network Manager class. This is what I use in all of my projects when I need one.
If you've got a long list in SwiftUI, search alone isn't enough. In this video coming up the following week, I'm building a fully navigable list, complete with search, dynamic sorting, reordered row content, and a slick index scrubber just like the iOS Contacts app.
Here is a quick demo of what it will look like when it is all done.

SQLiteData Series in Development
I am really excited to announce that I will soon be releasing a series.
This 10-part, 5 hour series will teach you how to build a production-ready iOS app using SQLite Data, the powerful open-source framework from Point-Free that gives you full control over your database in ways that Swift Data simply doesn't allow.
It will be released over the course of 5 weeks on YouTube but before the first release date it will also be available in its entirety to my monthly Kox-fi supporters. I will be providing more information about this series in my next newsletter so stay tuned.

IIf you enjoy what I do and want to support my work, you can join my Ko-fi community and either make a one-time donation or become a monthly supporter for as little as $5/month. Monthly supporters get early access to my videos as soon as they’re uploaded to YouTube (as unlisted videos), sometimes up to a month before they’re made public. Monthly supporters also get priority responses to their questions, and I’m happy to help with coding challenges.
In addition to PayPal, Ko-fi now supports Stripe, which makes it easier to pay by credit card.
