SaaS SDK as a Service
vs
Things to share: • Who is the customer and how
that affected our choices • Compatibility • The environment
Are you my customer?
Are you my customer?
Which platforms and versions to support? Which technologies to use?
iOS Version Statistics …of user devices
iOS Version Statistics …of apps in App Store Min. iOS
9.0 Min. iOS 8.0 Min. iOS 7.0 Min. iOS 6.0

– Swift.org https://developer.apple.com/swift/blog/?id=2 “It would be dangerous to rely upon
binary frameworks that use Swift — especially from third parties.”
iOS 8.0 + iOS 7.0 + Objective-C Swift Open source
only Open source only, copy code
Compatibility
New Version of App User Updates the App New Version
of App User Updates the App New Version of SDK auto-updates auto-updates may never happen…
Forward Compatibility • v1.0 might be out there forever •
What would happen when it stops working? • There will be new features, or versions of features…
Backwards Compatibility • Can’t afford breaking changes on backend •
Public API - breaking changes only if needed
Mind your surroundings • Device • Arbitrary project and its
configuration • Arbitrary UI hierarchy
• No Swift - No Modules. Prefix classes, to avoid
duplicate symbols • -ObjC is evil (-force_load is good) • NSLog…
Windows • A window on top of everything • Window
level is important. UIWindowLevelNormal = 0; UIWindowLevelStatusBar = 1000.0; UIWindowLevelAlert = 2000.0; UIWindowLevel CSKConciergeWindowLevel = 500; UIWindowLevel CSKConciergeAnnotationsWindowLevel = 10000000;
Keyboard Web iOS 9 iOS 8
Status Bar • Separate window takes over status bar. •
UIViewControllerBasedStatusBarAppearance does not make it easier. + (void)setPreferredMainStatusBarStyle:(UIStatusBarStyle)statusBarStyle; + (void)setShouldPreferStatusBarHidden:(BOOL)hidden;
Rotation • No control over rotation • If an orientation
is not supported by the app, it will never go there. • Have to support all
None
Localization • What if app not localized? • Bundle language
Things we learned • Remember your customer • Look into
future, but remember the past • Always mind the surroundings
