Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between Swift and Objective-C for iOS development?
Swift is a modern programming language developed by Apple for iOS development. It offers a clean syntax, safety features, and improved performance. Objective-C, on the other hand, is an older language that provides a lot of flexibility and is deeply integrated with iOS APIs. Swift is generally preferred for new projects due to its speed and ease of use, while Objective-C is often used in legacy projects.

What are the pros and cons of native iOS development vs cross-platform development?
Native iOS development offers high performance, access to the latest iOS features and APIs, and better integration with device hardware. However, it requires separate codebases for iOS and Android, increasing development time and cost. Cross-platform development allows for a single codebase to be used across multiple platforms, reducing development time and cost. However, it may have potential performance issues and limited access to platform-specific features.
What should I look for in an iOS developer’s portfolio?
When reviewing an iOS developer’s portfolio, consider their technical skills, project experience, UI/UX design abilities, code quality, and problem-solving capabilities. Look for proficiency in Swift and Objective-C, familiarity with iOS frameworks such as UIKit and Core Data, and experience with tools like Xcode and TestFlight. Check for examples of apps they have developed, preferably available on the App Store, and assess their ability to create intuitive and user-friendly interfaces.
