First Talk Description:
• Firestore improvements for iOS
Max Kalik, iOS Engineer at Triumph Labs
Besides all provided features in Firebase, the key one is easy-to-use. Firebase is extremely simple to set up and use, with a user-friendly dashboard and documentation that makes it convenient for developers to get started quickly.
But even with all these pros, when it comes to a more complex project than just MVP, we can come across with architectural question: How to organize better communication with Firebase?
In this talk, we will try to improve the usage of Firebase by creating an extension with a set of helpers for reading, updating, listening, and querying data from Firestore by using custom Requests.
Max is an iOS Developer successfully solving both technical and user problems at all stages of product creation. He works at a classic San Francisco start-up Triumph Labs as an iOS Engineer where he actively developing a plug-and-play real money tournament SDK for game developers.
