1. Using ZSH in your Terminal

MacOS Catalina has changed the default terminal from Bash to ZSH. As a result, we'll be adding configs to ~/.zshrc instead of ~/.bash_profile like we used in the past. You can manually change from Bash to ZSH anytime by running the following command:

chsh -s /bin/zsh

2. Install Homebrew

First, we need to install Homebrew. Homebrew allows us to install and compile software packages easily from source. Homebrew comes with a very simple install script. When it asks you to install XCode CommandLine Tools, say yes. Open Terminal and run the following command:

Threads

Foundation offers a Thread class, internally based on pthread, that can be used to create new threads and execute closures.

// Detaches a new thread and uses the specified selector as the thread entry point.
Thread.detachNewThreadSelector(selector: Selector>, toTarget: Any, with: Any)

// Subclass
class MyThread: Thread {

The introduction to Reactive Programming you've been missing

Hide iOS Simulator when running Unit Tests.

Based on this work, that @Dan2552 pointed out.

Instructions:

Clone this gist (git clone https://gist.github.com/6201428.git hide_ios_simulator)
Xcode -> Preferences -> Behavior -> Testing -> Generates output
Run script -> Choose script -> Select hide_simulator

Ground Control by @mattt is a great iOS library to remotely configure your iOS app by sending plists from a server to your app and then updating the user defaults values.

I wanted to extend this a bit with the following ideas in mind:

Define the values in a JSON file, instead of uploading an updated plist file to the server
Define values independently for given bundle identifiers, bundle version and language combination, so I can modify e.g. beta and debug versions independently from released apps
Values can be defined in a default language for a bundle version and overwritte on language specific entries like en. You can also only use default or only use specific languages
Return an empty plist for all unknown bundle identifiers or bundle versions
Don't check for config updates on every startup or every time the app becomes active, but only once a day or a remotely configurable amount of days
Right now the server side ph
