I enjoy sharing my experiences and insights through various channels. Here you'll find my podcast appearances, interviews, conference talks, and other public engagements where I discuss Swift development, software engineering practices, and building impactful products.
Leo Dion and I discuss building Plinky from scratch, the technical decisions behind using SwiftUI and Vapor, creating delightful user experiences, and the journey from working at Twitter to becoming an indie developer.
Plinky was featured in Indie App Spotlight Issue 20, where we discussed the app's origin story, design philosophy, technical implementation, and the journey of building a successful indie app.
Peter Witham and I discuss the incredible experience of having Plinky featured on the App Store, the journey of indie app development, and how doing good work creates opportunities.
