The digest of interesting materials for the mobile developer # 285 (February 4 - 10)

In the new release, we talk about server animations, “bad” Google, image acceleration and localization tools, an enchanting dating app for the fridge and a culture of growth in companies. Get connected!

Animations in iOS applications born on the server

iOS engineers have probably guessed how much work we are talking about: to remove old ones and add new animations, you need to perform a lot of actions from the client side. To do this, each release must have Android and iOS commands involved, and together with the time required to approve the update in the App Store, this means that each release with updated animations can take several days to launch. However, we managed to solve this problem, and now I will tell you how.

Okay, google! Are you good or evil?

So it happened that the company of good, which I loved and admired, caused me so much evil. But first things first.
