FYI it&#x27;s built using Swift and ReactiveCocoa. They put up all the dependencies licenses in Settings so I made a list of the packages they use <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;gist.github.com&#x2F;ropiku&#x2F;b259f35060a40eab1597" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;gist.github.com&#x2F;ropiku&#x2F;b259f35060a40eab1597</a>.

In case anyone else was confused, Fabric is also the name of the CSS framework from Microsoft for developing Office 365 add-ins. <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;blogs.office.com&#x2F;2015&#x2F;08&#x2F;31&#x2F;introducing-office-ui-fabric-your-key-to-designing-add-ins-for-office&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;blogs.office.com&#x2F;2015&#x2F;08&#x2F;31&#x2F;introducing-office-ui-fa...</a>

I&#x27;m an iOS Developer working on a project that uses Fabric ad I -absolutely- hate it. Maybe something is wrong with our integration, but I hate the fact that any run of the XCode build runs the Fabric Mac app and you HAVE to have it running, or else your XCode build fails. This doesn&#x27;t help when your Fabric app crashes sometimes or isn&#x27;t seen by Xcode for some reason, so every now and then my Chrome browser will just re-direct me to Fabric&#x27;s website to download the SDK and I&#x27;ll have about 20 tabs open before force quitting &amp; relauncing the app. I like the idea of housing a lot of useful dev tools together, but hate having such a large overhead around it to do so.

I confess I never trust an animal until I can see its mouth; until I know what it eats, I can&#x27;t be sure whether I&#x27;m dinner. So how does Twitter benefit from this? Is it just hoping that people will use their ad platform?<p>Given Twitter&#x27;s fickleness toward developers in the past I&#x27;m especially wary.

Does anyone currently use Fabric? And if so, have you moved on to integrate MoPub Twitter-ad-network functionality? I&#x27;m curious how adoption has gone.

Twitter&#x27;s mobile dev tools are fantastic. Love that they have this on iOS now.

Definitely a good start. I&#x27;m hoping they add Answers integration to the app quickly as that is one of the more impactful Fabric uses for us.

How does one get Audience Insights? The FAQ says: In order to protect the privacy of users, we only show this data when it exceeds a minimum size.<p>Does anyone know what the minimum size is?<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;fabric.io&#x2F;kits&#x2F;android&#x2F;answers" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;fabric.io&#x2F;kits&#x2F;android&#x2F;answers</a>

Not to be confused with...<p>Fabric - A platform for secure distributed computation and storage <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.cs.cornell.edu&#x2F;andru&#x2F;papers&#x2F;fabric-sosp09.pdf" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.cs.cornell.edu&#x2F;andru&#x2F;papers&#x2F;fabric-sosp09.pdf</a><p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.cs.cornell.edu&#x2F;projects&#x2F;fabric&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.cs.cornell.edu&#x2F;projects&#x2F;fabric&#x2F;</a><p>From the place that brought us practical, cutting-edge security like JIF, SIF, SWIFT, and CIVITAS. Link below gets you to most of that:<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.cs.cornell.edu&#x2F;jif&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.cs.cornell.edu&#x2F;jif&#x2F;</a><p>Then there&#x27;s this Fabric which probably has different security properties. ;)

I beta tested the mobile app, great tool for keeping an eye on stats&#x2F;crahes. Highly recommended.

For someone who doesn&#x27;t do mobile development, what is this and how&#x27;s Twitter involved?

Still not sure what it does - provides monitoring, analytics, and a nice UI for cocoapods?

Doesn&#x27;t seem like you can look at issues? There&#x27;s an activity section that shows comments, and from there you can look at the related issue, but not view all of them.

This is great. I don&#x27;t have to frequently opened Fabric.io page to see the stats anymore.
