In this episode of the iOS dev podcast, I had the pleasure of sitting down with Catalin Patrascu. We covered a wide range of topics such as differences between junior and senior iOS developer, freelancing, journey into tech, SwiftUI vs UIKit, best architecture, Singleton design pattern, and much more! Hope you enjoy!
