Create, Push, and Present Any View Controller in 1 LOC using Metaprogramming
It is important to say that there is an elegant solution to the resource consistency problem that we haven’t adapted yet. Instead of testing raw values of UIStoryboard.Name cases, we could just generate the UIStoryboard.Name enum. Please refer to SwiftGen for the details.

Localization strings files have a new format/convention?
Your strings should work as-is if you use a tool like SwiftGen (it generates compiler-enforced types for use in your app).
- Do you guys/gals use the "Costants.swift" file or the "Localizations.strings" method?
- What are the most underrated third party libraries for Native iOS?
-
How would you solve this localization issue?
Tools like https://github.com/SwiftGen/SwiftGen can be used to ensure at compile time that all keys used in your app are actually defined. Having keys organized as hierarchical enums, with auto-completion in Xcode is also a nice plus.
-
Can I install SwiftGen through a Gemfile?
Our project includes a Gemfile which we use to specify some external dependencies. I'm trying to add SwiftGen (https://github.com/SwiftGen/SwiftGen) to the project. We want to eventually deprecate Cocoapods so I can't use that installation method.

Did you also know? In Xcode you can use the refactoring tool to wrap a literal string into a call to NSLocalizedString! Even better, you can assign a keyboard shortcut to make it even more efficient 🤓
Or you can use something like SwiftGen and have code generation for your localized strings and have it checked at compile time instead of getting those pesky typo errors at runtime that you never check ;)
