taylortime

What better way to check out the hot new Swift programming language then with tweets from our very own Taylor Swift!

What's in the box?

Your very own iOS 8 app that uses NSURLSession to hit up Twitter, fetch an application-level bearer token, then retrieve the latest tweets of one taylorswift13.

What can I see in action?

  • Some asynchronous network calls via NSURLSession
  • Bridging between NSArray/NSDictionary and Swift arrays/dictionaries
  • Random number generation
  • Some struct initialization
  • Tuples!
  • Generics!
  • Closures! (and trailing closure syntax!)
  • The raw emotion of a lost soul, happy and free, yet so confused

How do I run it?

  1. Get yourself a copy of Xcode 6. You'll need to have an Apple Developer account. That's $99.
  2. Now, make yourself a Twitter application. You can do that at the Twitter Developers portal.
  3. In ViewController.swift, change **YOUR API KEY HERE** and **YOUR API SECRET HERE** to your API key and secret.
  4. Run, click the button, swim in a sea of unfiltered emotion.

Is this good Swift code?

I'd like to think so. I mean, I did sit through the entire "Introduction to Swift" session at WWDC.

Are you an Apple Developer Evangelist of some sort?

Not yet. WINK WINK.

Who are you, then?

I'm @marcchambers.
