Introduction to TextKit with Dave Weston

After a couple months of radio silence, we're back with a talk about TextKit from Dave Weston, an iOS developer at Yammer/Microsoft.

TextKit is an Apple framework introduced two years ago with iOS 7 and brings some of the powerful layout manipulation of OS X to iOS. In this talk, Dave Weston will explain how Yammer used TextKit to improve their app and why you might want to consider it for your next project. We’ll also explore a demo project together.

As always, there will be free food and plenty of time to network after the talk.

Location Info

When you arrive, enter the Merchandise Mart through the main entrance. Head to the elevators between the two security desks and take to the 8th floor. These elevators will let you off in Braintree’s lobby. If you aren’t in Braintree’s lobby, you took the wrong elevators. Once there, a security guard will check for your name on the RSVP list and check your ID to let you in. Once inside Braintree, there will be signs pointing to where the meetup is taking place. WHEN RSVP’ING FOR THE MEETUP, PLEASE PROVIDE YOUR FULL NAME WHEN ASKED SO YOU DON’T HAVE ISSUES GETTING INTO BRAINTREE.
