First Talk Description:
• Demystifying SwiftSyntax: Unraveling the Magic of Abstract Syntax Trees (ASTs)
Mike Katz, distinguished engineer at Capital One

SwiftSyntax empowers developers to inspect and manipulate code through operations on the abstract syntax tree (AST). SwiftSyntax is what powers the Swift Macro system and other tools. This will be a very quick overview of what an AST is and how one can use the SwiftSytax library to walk and manipulate the tree.

Mike Katz is a distinguished engineer at Capital One. He's been an iOS developer at multiple firms from way back in the day. He's co-authored several books and many tutorials at Kodeco. He's interested in software engineering as a craft and appreciates a good programming joke.

Second Talk Description:
• Enhancing Swift Development through Modularization and Automation
Mani Ramezan, Staff Engineer at LinkedIn

This presentation delves into the concept of Swift modularization, highlighting the practice of breaking down monolithic codebases into smaller, more manageable subprojects. We will discuss the various automation tools available that can streamline the creation and management of these subprojects, making the development process more efficient. Additionally, we will explore the benefits of a modularized codebase, such as improved parallel build processes, faster build times, easier maintenance, and enhanced scalability. Attendees will gain practical insights and strategies to optimize their Swift development workflow for increased efficiency and productivity.

My name is Mani, and I'm currently a Staff Engineer at LinkedIn. I have been working on iOS applications for over a decade, focusing on code modularization and reducing build times by simplifying the creation of subprojects.
