Last minute tiConf US Last Wednesday I made the last minute decision to go to New York City for tiConf US this weekend. The Titans (developer advocates) are like colleagues to me. I’ve met most of the European ones in Valencia last year, but with no Codestrong in 2013 and 2014 I decided it would be well worth flying […]
Major update for TiNy Last week I quietly pushed out a major update for TiNy. I presented TiNy in November at TiAppCamp in Atlanta as an alternative CLI for ti build that allows you to use less, shorter and smarter options. For example: 1 ti build -platform ios -target dist-appstore --pp-uuid 37304C9F-B2E0-490A-9800-0448A33BECE9 --distribution-name "Fokke Zandbergen (E8978765FC)" can be reduced to: 1 tn 37304C9F-B2E0-490A-9800-0448A33BECE9 "Fokke Zandbergen (E8978765FC)" or with a custom recipe even: 1 tn deploy TiNy is now […]

If you have retina images in iphone/images and use […]
