BrightDigit #90 - What is a Dependency? 🤔

We often take dependencies for granted when building apps in Swift. Most of the time, this doesn’t lead to any problems

Issue #90

Hello everyone!

I had a really great chat with Brandon Williams from Point-Free a few months that got me thinking… What is a dependency?

We often take dependencies for granted when building apps in Swift. Most of the time, this doesn’t lead to any problems, but it has a way of lulling many Swift developers into a false sense of security.

Control Your Swift Dependencies Before They Control You

Dependency management in Swift is essential to maintaining the stability and security of your apps. It’s necessary if you’re going to build an app on time and budget. Done well, it avoids breaking issues, But as Brandon Williams from Point-Free pointed out in my conversation with him on EmpowerApps, we often underappreciate how much we rely on and compromise with other people’s code that we can’t control.
