It’s always a pleasure when women want to present at our conferences, it’s especially when they’re awesome! Jessica Kahn from Tapulous will be with us presenting, ”Building & Maintaining a Family of Applications: Code Reuse on a Platform that Supports One Binary per Application”
Code re-use is huge, not just in iPhone circles, but in general. Every programmer should strive to get some level of code re-use going on, it just makes sense.
The iPhone platform currently prohibits typical means for creating shared code modules: frameworks, dylibs, and loadable bundles. If you’re creating a suite of applications that have common core functionality, this presents something of a maintenance nightmare. Find out how Tapulous, the makers of Tap Tap Revenge (and several other applications all based upon the same core engine), solved this problem to cut costs, save time, and increase quality across the product line. Learn from our experience (including our initial missteps), and jumping through the right Xcode, Subversion, and code-signing hoops will be a breeze for you!
Anytime we can get more women presenters we’re eager to help bring a little balance to the event, so it’s great have so many female presenters at this 360|iDev! We have more women presenting this time than we did in San Jose!
As a programmer, code re-use is one of those tenets that can’t be ignored, so this session will be a big boon for developers just getting into the concept and even those familiar with it.
Register now, don’t miss the biggest and best iPhone developer conference of 2009!
