No uninitialized values, same as Java. You don’t get junk values that are whatever were in that memory previously. It’s actually a lack of ambiguity in that an int will always be 0…

One of my absolute favorite pieces of software of all time is "Toot!", the Mastodon client on iOS. It's because it exemplifies this type of development extremely well, with most in…

Has it ever been made easy to use on mobile? That’s the big thing that’s always given me pause on investing heavily in using it. Especially since it uses weird syntax in places and…
