Creating easy-to-read short links to the App Store for your apps and company

You can also create easy-to-read links to your app using App Store Short Links, which use the AppStore.com base URL plus a specific form of your app or company name. These short links are ideal for use in offline communications materials like print ads, TV spots, app trailers, radio ads and billboards where you need a memorable URL.

Note: Previously, short links were available using the itunes.com URL. AppStore.com replaces itunes.com. iTunes.com links will continue to work but should be updated as soon as feasible.
There are three types of App Store Short Links, in two forms, one for iOS apps, another for Mac Apps:

Company Name

iOS: http://appstore.com/ for example, http://appstore.com/apple
Mac: http://appstore.com/mac/ for example, http://appstore.com/mac/apple
App Name

iOS: http://appstore.com/ for example, http://appstore.com/keynote
Mac: http://appstore.com/mac/ for example, http://appstore.com/mac/keynote
App by Company

iOS: http://appstore.com// for example, http://appstore.com/apple/keynote
Mac: http://appstore.com/mac// for example, http://appstore.com/mac/apple/keynote

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!

Implementing UI tests on iOS and Android using screenshot comparison tools

Have you ever thought when writing or maintaining UI tests, there must be a better way? Take a look at screenshot tests provided by Google Firebase and Facebook: ios-snapshot-test-case A "snapshot test case" takes a configured UIView or CALayer and uses the renderInContext: method to get an image snapshot of its contents. It compares this snapshot to a "reference image" stored in your source code repository and fails the test if the two images don't match. GitHub Facebook screenshot-tests-for-android Testing rendering for your Android app is hard. How do you prevent visual regressions in paddings and margins and colors from creeping in? Iterating on UI code is hard. How do you quickly verify that your layout or view changes work correctly in all configurations? screenshot-tests-for-android can solve these problems by providing a test framework that checks for visual differences across changes.
