Fragments 2017

Swifty + WebService is a new way of doing networking on iOS, and is designed to service the complex networking requirements of modern mobile apps.

Written in 100% Swift, it’s designed to be fully compatible with mixed Objective-C and Swift codebases, and has features such as Network Request Throttling and Prioritization, Request/Response Interceptors, Requesting Blocking based on conditions and other requests, and defines a new way to arrange your network requests and options into a clean, Swift style syntax that’s fully accessible, and extensible from ObjC and Swift callers.

Outline

• Why a new networking stack?
• Swifty & it’s Features
• WebService, and writing your first network request
• Performance (in comparison with Alamofire, NSURLSession)
• Extensibility & Use Cases

The code will be open sourced a few weeks before the event.
