I must have a different idea of what “deep dive” means; this is simply going through the (relatively simple) motions of implementing a builder. “Deep dive”, to me, would look at how the compiler translates statements using these builders, for example, or reverse-engineering Apple’s builders for juicy information.<p>I’ve recently forayed into SwiftUI to see what all the fuss was. I have to say, I really feel for people just now starting to learn app development. Older Cocoa and iOS developers probably remember what actual in-depth articles look like, what “deep dives” actually are, etc. Instead, what we have is a culture of very shallow and information-light “articles”, that seems to me more like SEO bot posts trolling for clicks, rather than written for developers, by developers. And it’s not like the Sundells and Hudsons, but also NSHipster, CocoaWithLove, etc., which were traditionally where high-quality and information-rich content would come from in the past. Likewise with conferences, whereas in the past they’d invite developers to “deep dive” into and interesting development or debugging session, now they’ve devolved, for the most part, into these shallow, byte-sized “Swift” nonsenses. As if the language somehow defines the identity of the developers, and apps magically become much better as virtue of the language used, rather than the system frameworks.<p>I’m getting old.
