Yeees, the objc.io guys are awesome.

Any idea if the site has moved to a different domain ?

#14I would like to add PaintCode and XcodeColors.
PaintCode: It's really expensive but it's like a live tutorial on low level view drawing.
XCodeColors: Used in conjunction with heavily modded LumberJack loggers is like logging heaven.

#15This is a great list! Here are some tools that I have also found useful that I don't see on the list: Dash[1] - Quickly check documentation (like, really quickly) objc.io[2] - Great reading on iOS and OS X APIs HockeyApp[3] - Service similar to Testflight https://itunes.apple.com/app/dash-docs-snippets/id458034879?... , http://www.objc.io/ , http://hockeyapp.net/
I've been meeting to get Dash after hearing about it on a recent podcast (can't remember which one though). Assuming since it's in your "toolbox" you enjoy using it?
Dash's search speed puts Xcode to shame. It makes development much, much quicker for me.

#17Pixelmator instead of Photoshop for me.
Pixelmator and Sketch are a fantastic combination to replace almost everything I'd ever do with Adobe CS.
Sketch is also so much easier to get nice results out of than Illustrator.
I love Pixelmator, but its biggest shortcoming is the complete lack of palette management, especially if you pick up and move between different monitor setups frequently. They need to snap to each other and the sides. They just end up everywhere, including on top of each other. I can never find the ones I need because they're always piling up and changing sizes and locations.

AppCode, the IDE that is an extension of my brain. Wonderful inspection abilities at breakpoints. Superlative refactoring and completion. And so very much more.
http://injectionforxcode.com Injection for XCode and AppCode for hot code injection so that I launch the simulator once and code interactively over many, many changes.
https://github.com/robertwijas/UISS UISS so I can interactively configure appearance proxies.
Slowly but surely, I will live like in Smalltalk.

I love how deep objc.io dives. They'll present long essays on topics which normally get glossed over in a sentence or two. Particularly useful are their thoughts on the state of objective c design patterns (quite a volatile topic since the release of iOS).

I feel way faster using appcode - their refactoring is so powerful.
