Newsletter of AppForce1 - Issue #21

By AppForce1 · Jeroen Leenarts • Issue #21 • View online

Some cool news this week. 360iDev announced their speaker line up and I am kind of awestruck by it. I am a speaker myself at 360iDev, but the rest of the speakers… It is humbling to be amongst them on the 360iDev website.

I also got a late interview with Shane. Check it our on my podcast feed.

Kristaps and I have decided to finally wrap up the Swift Weekly Brief newsletter. All data of list members has been deleted now.

The electric car has been delayed by two months due to supply chain issues. Which is a bit of a bummer. But if there is one thing I learned this week, there can be way worst things that can happen out of nowhere.

Enjoy the links of this week and see you next week.

Best,

Jeroen

Speaking at 360iDev

Building a Vapor Swift backend integration with authentication and authorization

When integrating with many online services, there is often a bit of serverside glue you need to create yourself. Stream’s chat service is no different. In this talk Jeroen will focus on what you need to create an authentication and authorization backend that integrated with a service provider. It doesn’t matter which. Stream’s service is only used as an example of a third party service you might want to integrate with. The core of the talk will be about how to create a Vapor Swift backend for your app and your third party service.

We will cover the basics of setting up a Vapor Swift project and after that integrating with a third party service. Once that’t done, some form of authentication and authorization will be added.

Tickets available.
