Mia Alexiou - An introduction to Swift #54

Closed subsymbolic closed 9 years ago

subsymbolic commented 9 years ago

The Swift programming language is a huge improvement over Objective C and makes iOS programming faster for existing developers and much more accessible for new developers.

If people are interested in learning more about Swift I'll happily give an intro talk and can do it in either of these formats: Option 1. An overview of the Swift programming language Option 2. Developing your first iOS app using Swift

@subsymbolic Sounds great! Would you be able to do this in May April? Either 1 or 2 sound good.

subsymbolic commented 9 years ago

@mikemcquaid, unfortunately I can't do April, but May and June are both good.

MikeMcQuaid commented 9 years ago

@subsymbolic Cool May would be great.

subsymbolic commented 9 years ago

@mikemcquaid That's perfect.

It's just dawned on me that this is just before WWDC where Apple will likely be providing new advice on Swift. How do you feel about moving it to July so that I can cover the latest and greatest? I'm still happy to do May if changing at this late stage is too hard.

MariusCiocanel commented 9 years ago

I think most people haven't looked at Swift so far. The ones who have will have a good idea about where to get more detailed information. It's up to you but I think May would be better :)

subsymbolic commented 9 years ago

May it is then :)

MariusCiocanel commented 9 years ago

@subsymbolic will you need internet/a laptop for your talk? what connector does your laptop have for the projector? Thanks!

subsymbolic commented 9 years ago

I'll bring my Macbook Pro. Connectors would be great, my laptop has thuderbolt and hdmi ports. Thanks :-)

MariusCiocanel commented 9 years ago

subsymbolic commented 9 years ago
