A group for iOS and Swift developers who want to explore all that's new and fascinating in Apple development. Expect deep dives and bleeding edge stuff.
We meet in London, but if you don't happen to be there, catch the videos at [NSLondon.com](https://nslondon.com/).

Featured event
NSLondon 2026.2 at JustPark
We have three great talks lined up, plus time to chat and meet others in the community. We can’t wait to see you there!
We want NSLondon to be welcoming to everyone and support a broad range of voices. To help address existing imbalances in attendance, we’re offering a limited number of early-access spots to women, non-binary people, and others who are currently underrepresented in the iOS developer community. You can request one of these spaces by filling in this form before RSVPs open for general availability.
💬 Talks:
Raphael Velasqua — “Claude as Your iOS Pair Programmer”
What if your codebase could teach Claude how your team codes — not just generic Swift? A glimpse of scaffolding, writing reliable tests and more with Claude.
Paul Shone — “Turning Applications in to Apps: Tips on getting hired in a changing marketplace”
Join Paul Shone, Co-Founder of Pixelated People, a recruitment leader with over 15 years of experience in building world-class mobile engineering teams. Paul shares invaluable insights on how to standout and secure your dream job in this changing and competitive job market. If you are a job seeker aiming to land the perfect role this session is packed with actionable advice that will set you apart from the competition.
Vadim Popov — “From ARKit to Vision – How Far Can You Push the iOS Camera”
This talk explores how far you can push the iOS camera by rebuilding core camera features using AVCaptureSession, comparing real-time face and skeleton detection across ARKit, Vision, and MediaPipe, and diving into live image analysis like sharpness, brightness, and composition scoring with Vision and Accelerate. It also reflects on what users actually value in a camera app, sharing practical lessons and missteps from the journey.
