      Really informative. If possible could you create a playlist for different type of network calls that you have encountered example of which are, dependent n/w call, paginations etc. And best ways to call them, such as using dispatch group etc. that would really help the Developer across globe as all the developer do make n/w all the time.

      Is there any way that you can share a link to that file, especially because it's just a single file? I'm blind so I can't follow along with the video super well. I love how you explain the concepts, but there's a couple things with the symbols and stuff that I want to get my computer to read.

    9:45 Sean! I love that you talk about being confused [as a beginner] by things being all over the place in different directories/files.
    That happens for me too.
    This type of "compassion" is rare. So many teachers just assume, and don't have the ability-or don't care to-reach back into the past and remember what it was like to start out.
    Keep doing this. It sets you apart as a teacher.
    A professional writer friend of mine-who used to have an excellent podcast-said this all the time: "You're not alone." He peppered it in his writing. And often started articles that way. It was his go-to.
    Why is this so important? Because ultimately people feel alone. [Most won't admit it.]
    We want to belong.
    To know *you* struggled at one point just like I am today? That makes me included. Like i'm not just some idiot that will never get this. It's empowering: "I got this."
    Thanks again. Love learning from you (and @twostraws).

  • @TheWealthyIdiots
    @TheWealthyIdiots Год назад

    Great video! How would you handle passing request states like “loading” back to the UI? This variable will change a couple of times during the process so you couldn’t just pass it back as a return from your request, so just curious how you would handle it.

    • @TheWealthyIdiots
      @TheWealthyIdiots Год назад

      I guess you could just add it before and after the await call 🤔. That would work I think.

    • @seanallen
      @seanallen  Год назад +1

      Yeah, that's how it's typically handled. I usually use something like an "isLoading" boolean that gets flipped to true right before the API call, and then flipped back to false when the API call returns.

    @AvantjerTube Год назад

    FYI... When I tried using my own account url, ending in "avantjer", the app was showing only placeholders for all three fields (but no errors).
    I discovered that I had no "bio" on GitHub. ("bio": null)
    Once I added a bio to my GitHub account, everything worked fine.
    Interesting that I wasn't at least shown my login, and avatar, even though I had no bio.
    Maybe Codable "silently" failed because "bio" was null?

    • @AvantjerTube
      @AvantjerTube Год назад

      The code can be updated to handle cases in which the user has no bio.
      Just make "bio" an optional
      struct GitHubUser: Codable {
      let login: String
      let avatarUrl: String
      let bio: String?
      }

    Hey Sean, great video as always!
    As an experienced developer wanna ask you - do you think it's okay to use classic Result in closure way of network request instead of async/await in new UIKit based apps?
    I tried to use async/aways and it didn't feel much better, still need to wrap this code in Task, call it with and expect response asynchronously. What do you think?
    Due to i currently making new app from scratch, and still feeling unease cause i use UIKit :D
    And not using async/await is making me feel like those ObjC devs i was looking at when i started iOS 5 years ago

    • @seanallen
      @seanallen  Год назад

      My opinion is that it's perfectly fine to use the classic closure based way of doing network calls. Async/Await has its benefits and is more "modern". But at the end of the day... as long as your code works and the codebase is easy to read and work in.. you're all good as far as I'm concerned.

    Excellent content. Truth be told, I'm not a huge fan of excessive do { } catch blocks as they tend to make me anxious for some reason 😅. I usually lean towards using closures or creating wrappers around do/catch, maybe it's just a force of habit.
    However, each new release of Swift & SwiftUI seems to be improving tremendously. I'm optimistic that they'll soon address the navigation issues - I'm aware of NavigationStack, but sadly it's only compatible with iOS16+ and I haven't had the chance to try it out yet.
    A minor suggestion for this kind of videos would be to include a gist with a code in the description.
