Talks of the night
Talk 1: Migrating to Swift 6 The Stupid Way - with Dag Ågren, Staff Engineer at Wolt
Migrating a mature application to Swift 6. How hard can it be?
Talk 2: Compose Migration at Wolt - with Maksim Makrushin, Software Engineer at Wolt
Every mature codebase has its own legacy; ours was a fully custom UI framework that once solved everything from navigation to state management. This session goes through the journey of dismantling this bespoke system in favor of modern practices and components. Explore the strategic decisions behind the migration, the unexpected challenges of interoperability, and the practical lessons learned during a large codebase evolution.
Talk 3: From Pixels to People: Lessons in Mobile Accessibility Development - with Eric Pintos, Software Engineer at Wolt
Accessibility in mobile development isn’t just a nice-to-have — it’s a core engineering responsibility. In this talk, we’ll dive into the developer’s perspective on accessibility, covering real-world techniques for implementing features like screen reader support, scalable text, and keyboard navigation. We’ll discuss common pitfalls, debugging strategies, and tips to integrate accessibility into your development workflow. By the end, you’ll walk away with practical coding patterns and tools that help ensure your mobile apps are inclusive and usable for everyone.
We're very excited to welcome you! See you soon 🤩
