Swift Developer Podcast - App development and discussion

App store presence and optimization can be as simple or complicated as you choose. The short advice is that the more you put in, the more you get out. We dive into details and suggestions in this episode based on our experiences. * (00:00) - Introduction * (01:30) - What is App Store Presence? * (09:56) - Become a member * (12:54) - Keywording * (15:51) - Privacy and age rating * (20:50) - Clean My Mac * (24:00) - Visuals * (32:49) - Learning resources * (35:31) - SetApp * (36:46) - Tools As mentioned in this episode * https://developer.apple.com/help/app-store-connect/manage-app-information/upload-app-previews-and-screenshots/ [https://developer.apple.com/help/app-store-connect/manage-app-information/upload-app-previews-and-screenshots/] * https://www.youtube.com/@appfigures [https://www.youtube.com/@appfigures] * https://appfigures.com/resources/guides [https://appfigures.com/resources/guides] * https://subclub.com/ [https://subclub.com/] * https://developer.apple.com/app-store/custom-product-pages/ [https://developer.apple.com/app-store/custom-product-pages/] * https://developer.apple.com/help/app-store-connect/manage-featuring-nominations/nominate-your-app-for-featuring/ [https://developer.apple.com/help/app-store-connect/manage-featuring-nominations/nominate-your-app-for-featuring/] * https://helm-app.com/ [https://helm-app.com/] * https://rotato.app/ [https://rotato.app/] * https://www.sketch.com/ [https://www.sketch.com/] Thanks to our monthly supporters * Marko Wiese * Adam Wulf * bitSpectre * Arclite ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★ [https://patreon.com/compileswift]

This week’s episode discusses AI tools and their applications for developers. The hosts share their experiences using AI chatbots, highlighting their usefulness for code generation, problem-solving guidance, and code explanation. They also discuss the benefits of AI tools for finding code snippets and remembering API names. AI tools are useful for developers, especially when dealing with outdated or obscure technologies, as they can provide accurate and relevant information. While Apple’s predictive code completion in Xcode has its limitations, it is a step towards integrating AI into developer tools. However, the lack of progress on Apple’s promised chat-based tool, Swift Assist, raises concerns about Apple’s ability to compete in the rapidly evolving AI landscape.

App intents can be exposed in various ways beyond shortcuts, such as custom controls, focus filters, and spotlight actions. They enable users to perform specific actions without launching the app, making them more accessible and user-friendly. App intents can also be used to configure widgets, interact with hardware, and handle preferences, providing a seamless user experience across different platforms. * (00:00) - Introduction * (04:20) - App Intents * (06:57) - Become a member * (07:17) - Some examples * (16:31) - Action Centered Design * (17:52) - Get some Coffee * (20:04) - Examples from Barc * (21:39) - What makes a good App Intent * (27:26) - Creating an App Intent * (30:03) - Using Queries and Configuration * (32:36) - Get SetApp * (55:35) - Cocoatype.com * (55:38) - Support the podcast Mentioned in this episode The way we interact with apps is changing, so should the way they are designed [https://blog.viditb.com/action-centered-design/]WWDC Developer video for getting started with App Intents [https://developer.apple.com/news/?id=jdqxdx0y] Become a Patreon member and help this Podcast survive https://www.patreon.com/compileswift [https://www.patreon.com/compileswift] Follow me on Mastodon https://iosdev.space/@Compileswift [https://iosdev.space/@Compileswift] Thanks to our monthly supporters * Marko Wiese * Adam Wulf * bitSpectre * Arclite ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★ [https://patreon.com/compileswift]
