A Medium publication for iOS developers with posts on libraries, app launches, App Store problems, Swift and Objective-C.
HN links it for its post on Apple's free Swift course, its survey of libraries in top iOS apps, and its Objective-C generics write-up.

TL;DR: Apple has apparently, via some sort of collaboration with a university professor, published last week — during WWDC — a really solid-looking learn-to-code curriculum for Swift that is kind of on iTunes U but that is really on GitHub.

This is similar to Postman's test runner feature. You can export a collection of requests and even write simple assertions in javascript.
Although it looks like Paw has potential for something similar with its extensions. It already has some sort of javascript availability.

Very interesting - does anyone know exactly what techniques they use to gather this data?
I'm guessing to some extent it must rely on a jailbroken iOS to get past the .ipa code encryption, as with this similar analysis: https://medium.com/ios-os-x-development/libraries-used-in-the-top-100-ios-apps-5b845ad927b7
This is certainly a good move. The Facebook SDK for example is widely used by many apps for Facebook ad performance tracking and analytics and that's something he public should be aware of.
See https://medium.com/ios-os-x-development/libraries-used-in-the-top-100-ios-apps-5b845ad927b7 for example
ComScore is one of the larger providers of these statistics similar to Nielsen ratings they provide a library you setup in your app.

Not up to date? They already made most of what was possible without breaking compatibility.
