Crafting Space to Be Ourselves
Jasdev Singh, Senior iOS Engineer at Peloton

This year, Peloton’s iOS team nearly tripled from three to eight members. A rarely-discussed aspect of internal growth is crafting a culture that lets teammates comfortably pose questions, ask for help, be their true selves, and feel welcome. We’ll explore the more nuanced ways we’ve attempted to do so—from interviewing, code review practices, to making sure our source is welcoming to current and future engineers.

Jasdev spends his days building Peloton and nights maintaining an essay collection, Distillations (https://jasdev.me). Previously, he’s built APIs and iOS apps at Tumblr, Imgur, and the Recurse Center. In his free time, he listens to dance music and rides bikes that don’t go anywhere.

Design Patterns in Swift
Jay Strawn, Product Lead / Senior iOS Developer at Virtz

Join us as published author Jay Strawn gives a talk about design patterns in Swift! We’ll discuss best practices for organizing an app with examples of beginner and advanced patterns.

Jay co-hosts the Ray Wenderlich podcast and is a co-author of the book “Design Patterns by Tutorials” (https://store.raywenderlich.com/products/design-patterns-by-tutorials). The book, recently published on RayWenderlich.com, includes example projects and playgrounds of design patterns ranging from common to niche. If you want to spend more time writing code than fixing bugs or trying to remember how your project is laid out, design patterns are a must!
