Building an Open Source iOS app (part 2)

Building an Open Source iOS app: lessons learned (part 2) Dec 12, 2016, Hacker Dojo (Santa Clara, CA), 6pm (part 1: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gE49zGSFcio) In this talk I'm going to talk about lessons learned from building Sensorama (http://www.sensorama.org), an Open Source sensor platform for data science. The main theme of the talk will be Open Source: what is great about it, what is bad and how you must become a part of the Open Source community to really move quickly and benefit from it. For this project, I did both the code and the design, so you'll have a chance to see how solo-developer deals with time/feature constraints, which tools I've used and what my approach towards development in this mode is. In other words: I'll tell you what I did to stay sane. If the iOS development were a walk in a dark city park, this talk may turn out to be your flashlight.
