xroad23189y@sboulema I don't think objective C is horrible - especially after they introduced ARC. But yes, it was definitely showing its age

C# or C++
Xamarin ftw
And C++ because I am a bit masochistic maybe I should try and use jave? -
Appcelerator is a good choice as well. Some friends use it and I have used it too. They have almost all native features of both Android and iOS on their Titanium API.

emes0013199ySwift. I've been a C# developer for many years and Swift was a much easier transition than Obj-C.

nizamani1889yI'm currently working with ionic + cordova + angular to write an app for iOS and Android. Every day I almost kill myself. Native FTW!
(Never tried Xamarin though) -
Swift (since v. 1.0). And I would rather stand 3 more language evolutions that are backward incompatible than touching 1-2 years old ObjC code. Not that ObjC is bad, it's just that I have found being more creative with Swift. Great language!

Tippy1769yI've been hoping this post would pop up some day. I am one of the weird few who actually like C in general (and objective C, C++, C#...), but I found Swift is actually exceedingly efficient on a lower level, so now I use that...makes me sad tbh 🍺

nizamani1889yCordova does the job, don't get me wrong. Just that html mobile apps are not as good as native ones.
Also my head hurts looking at Objective-C method signatures *shudders*
[POLL]: What do you prefer making iOS apps?
- Swift
- Objective-C
