• I have presented at CocoaHeads in Kraków! (25 Nov 2022)
  Last week on Tuesday I had a great opportunity to present my own topic at the CocoaHeads meetup conference in Kraków.
• Basic config server to avoid hardcoding in iOS applications (17 Oct 2020)
  Every information we hardcode in the client application makes it more difficult to update or fix. The problem is getting only worse when we regularly roll out new versions of our application. In this case we would need to keep track of every build to be sure we don't shut down any resource we pointed directly in our source code in the previous builds. Hardcoding is generally a bad idea...
• How to get rid of two layers of tabs in Xcode (10 Oct 2020)
  When they introduced document tabs, they didn't automatically hide window tabs for users migrating from older versions of Xcode (at least not in my case).

I used to use a pair of clunky tools to achieve it but fortunately there is quite hidden but easy to use tool from Xcode that can be used almost out of the box...

Sometimes I used this account to prepare test builds for my clients, but most of the time it was quite empty and abandoned. Now I decided to change it so I started to work on some side projects this year. One of them is Dice...
• My new article on Codete Blog (21 Sep 2017)
  Usually, when designing communication between a server and an iOS application, we choose JSON as a default serialization method. It has a lot of advantages: readability, flexibility and good availability of serializers in the majority of most popular web technologies used...
• Assign property for pointers (19 May 2016)
  When I lately upgraded Xcode to 7.3.1 I suddenly got a lot of errors in one of my older project I wanted to rebuild...
