Have I mentioned lately how awesome NSScreencast is? No? Worth the subscription. Check it out if you’re an iOS developer. Or even if you’re not and you want an example of how to do coding screencasts well.

Foster Bass

Got tired of dead-end googling so I checked to see if @NSScreencast had covered what I was looking for. Of course he had, 4 years ago. Should have checked there first.

Aijaz Ansari

One 13-minute episode of @NSScreencast just paid for the yearly subscription fee in amount of time saved. Do it.

Sam Soffes

Seriously great stuff even for seasoned developers. I’ve learned a good amount from Ben’s videos.

Can’t say enough good things about @NSScreencast There is gold in the Road Trip DJ Series.

  • Codable XML

    • Codable XML

    Last time we saw the manual approach to parsing XML. While ultra flexible, parsing XML that is extremely tedious. In this episode we will examine a different approach using Codable and a 3rd party library that adds support for XML. We'll see how XML's flexibility adds some increased complexity with how to parse documents, how to control whether properties are encoded/decoded as elements or attributes and how to deal with nested arrays.

  • Parsing XML in Swift

    #425

    • Parsing XML in Swift

    Sometimes legacy APIs that we have to deal with only support XML, and while Swift has first class support for JSON with Codable, XML parsing is still done with Foundation's XMLParser. This is a powerful yet difficult to use class that is modeled as a streaming XML parser. This means you have to write some code that keeps track of the values and state of where we are in the XML document in order to parse it. In this episode we will cover how to parse an XML document using multiple objects, parsers, and a delegate stack.
