Larder

What's in your Larder #2: iOS

Since launching our new bookmarking app Larder, we’ve started a blog series about the best links we have in our own Larder accounts.

I star a lot of Objective-C and Swift libraries on GitHub (Larder automatically saves these as bookmarks for me). I’m still fairly new to programming, so as I work on both the Exist and Larder iOS apps I’m always on the lookout for useful libraries. I also like bookmarking handy articles and tutorials that I might need later.

For this week, here are some of the best iOS development bookmarks I added to my Larder recently:

jonathantribouharet/JTCalendar

A customizable calendar view for iOS.

hkalexling/Buck_Tracker

An iOS expense tracker app written in Swift.

I was lucky enough to stumble upon this open source iOS app built in Swift. It uses the JTCalendar library I linked to above, which gave me a great opportunity to see the library in action.

A Beginner’s Guide to NSDate in Swift

Since switching to Swift for a lot of my iOS work, I haven’t had to deal with NSDate too much. This week I needed to do some date formatting and conversions to strings, and I found this article a really handy resource.
