Wish I’d seen that one yesterday BEFORE I ended up working out myself how to do something similar. At least I got fairly close to that so I must be learning something. I think Protocol Extensions are the power feature to Swift this year, especially with the ‘where’ clauses; and the annotation of the entire class library with generic types, nullability etc is the work which reduce Cocoa integration friction.

ObjC keyword of this year is ‘__kindof’.

I haven’t only been watching the Swift videos but some of the others too. I don’t think I’ve seen a piece of example code written in Objective C yet, apart from in the bits of the talks about actual new ObjC features. That’s quite telling.

And now I know what Kyle looks like too!
