Congrats on the launch and thanks for writing about your story – it's truly invaluable to me, personally.

How did you cut your teeth with iOS development? I'm traditionally a backend (hobbyist) developer, and am a little lost as to what are good resources to get started on iOS development for someone who's already familiar with programming

I started doing iOS stuff in 2012, so a lot has changed since then! If you're just getting into it now, I'd probably recommend diving straight into SwiftUI, which is Apple's new UI framework, and likely the future of iOS dev. Paul Hudson's "Hacking with Swift" website has a "100 days of SwiftUI" series that I've seen people really enjoying – might be worth checking out!

the big nerd book is generally good and pretty thorough and recommended often. however, it's tutorial form though so if that's your jam it works well. i tend to find that the tutorial form a bit less useful as it's too verbose and storylike.

Thank you very much! Tutorials are hit or miss, but I'll definitely give this a try
