Lessons Learned During the Conception of Ollert

In less than three days, a team of 6 built a minimal viable product (MVP) and put it live on the internet.

A C# developer learns Swift Part 1: Core Data

What happens to all those startup weekend projects?

Better Testing in Go With Gocheck

As a quick reminder, golang is a really fun programming language to use. It even includes testing out of the box! Unfortunately, this out-of-the-box testing framework isn’t all that great. It lacks the syntactic sugar of mature frameworks like rspec or gtest. Of course, there are alternatives. I found an open-source library (licensed with Simplified […]
