KSCrash


Another crash reporter? Why?

Because all existing solutions fall short. PLCrashReporter comes very close, but not quite:

It can't handle stack overflow crashes.
It doesn't fill in all fields for its Apple crash reports.
It can't symbolicate on the device.
It only records enough information for an Apple crash report, though there is plenty of extra useful information to be gathered!
As well, each crash reporter service, though most of them use PLCrashReporter at the core, has its own format and API.

KSCrash is superior for the following reasons:

It catches ALL crashes.
Its pluggable server reporting architecture makes it easy to adapt to any API service (it already supports Hockey and Quincy and sending via email, with more to come!).
It supports symbolicating on the device.
It records more information about the system and crash than any other crash reporter.
It is the only crash reporter capable of creating a 100% complete Apple crash report (including thread/queue names).
It can be compiled with or without ARC.

Server-driven UI (SDUI): Meet Zalandos AppCraft and AirBnB Lona

A short WTF: Joe Birch:  SERVER DRIVEN UI, PART 1: THE CONCEPT Zalando seems to follow the SDUI principle as well - defining a common design language and construct the screens on the backend while displaying them natively on the clients. They even go one step further; they implemented a mighty toolset to enable non-technical stakeholders to define their own native app screens Compass: Web tooling to create screens and bind data Beetroot: Backend service that combines the screen layout definition with the data Lapis/Golem: iOS/Android UI render engines Crazy cool! Good job, guys (when you do an open-source release?) To even move faster a Flutter based UI render engine implementation was great!

CFPropertyList

The PHP implementation of Apple's PropertyList plist can handle XML PropertyLists as well as binary PropertyLists. It offers functionality to easily convert data between worlds, e.g. recalculating timestamps from unix epoch to apple epoch and vice versa. A feature to automagically create (guess) the plist structure from a normal PHP data structure will help you dump your data to plist in no time. github

j2obc - A Java to iOS Objective-C translation tool and runtime

What J2ObjC Is J2ObjC is an open-source command-line tool from Google that translates Java code to Objective-C for the iOS (iPhone/iPad) platform. This tool enables Java code to be part of an iOS application's build, as no editing of the generated files is necessary. The goal is to write an app's non-UI code (such as data access, or application logic) in Java, which is then shared by web apps (using GWT), Android apps, and iOS apps. J2ObjC supports most Java language and runtime features required by client-side application developers, including exceptions, inner and anonymous classes, generic types, threads and reflection. JUnit test translation and execution is also supported. J2ObjC is currently between alpha and beta quality. Several Google projects rely on it, but when new projects first start working with it, they usually find new bugs to be fixed. Apparently every Java developer has a slightly different way of using Java, and the tool hasn't translated all possib...
