FrenchKit Episode IV: A New Hope.
We are thrilled to announce our new venue: Le Beffroi de Montrouge. More space, more comfort and some surprises 🤫.
We are working on the website update (among other things). We should have some other announcements soon. Stay tuned 📻…
Breaking news: Frenchkit 2019 (a.k.a. episode IV) is confirmed! We have a date: October 7-8 and an awesome new venue. Stay tuned for more information :)
After what feels like a century of compiling, we're finally releasing! Say hello to Swift Connection, the new FrenchKit 🇫🇷🎉.
Our socials will catch up tomorrow, but our website is ready:
📣 This morning it’s our turn to make some exciting announcements: believe it or not,
@mattt
will be on stage at FrenchKit next September!! 😮
👉
(...yes, the Flight School, NSHipster, Alamofire, AFNetworking, Nomad CLI, etc Mattt, if you were wondering)
📣 Next September we’ll be thrilled to welcome one of the most talented and prolific authors in our community:
@johnsundell
! Looking forward to seeing you at FrenchKit John! 👐
Salut Twitter, we have news for you:
FrenchKit 2020 *IS* happening!
But there’s more: ⛑ due to the COVID-19 situation we’ll be taking extra safety measures. As a result, FrenchKit 20 will be one-day only, taking place on October 2nd.
Please welcome FrenchKit SE! 🎉
The Time has come!
⚡️ The first speaker we’re proud to announce this year is
@DonnyWals
, prolific speaker, ex-engineer at
@DisneyStreaming
and author, among others, of “Practical Combine”!
If you’re a seasoned iOS developer, you probably owe him a 🍺 for iCarousel or SwipeView. And if you aren’t, chance is you’re now using SwiftFormat or the impressive Layout framework.
Either way, we’re proud to welcome
@NickLockwood
at FrenchKit next September!
📣 Today, we’re really excited to announce our first speaker:
@steipete
💪, the great
@PSPDFKit
master. You’ll see him on stage at FrenchKit next October!
👉
Back in February we decided to go for an awesome bigger venue and optimistically doubled the number of tickets for sale.
Today, we only have 29 tickets available. We are speechless 😳.
Thanks so much for your trust 🙏.
You know,
@NSSpain
is probably the greatest conference. And we want to be a great conference.
So we kidnapped
@Lascorbe
to have him on stage.
¡Hasta la semana próxima amigos!
📢 Good news everyone: Marcin Krzyzanowski joins the FrenchKit lineup.
🛠 He will speak about Swift source parsing to build great tools.
@krzyzanowskim

See you in Paris !

- It’s all there 👉
📣 Thanks to his great
@iOSDevWeekly
, you’ve never missed any important update on iOS development. This September, make sure you won’t miss him on stage:
@daveverwer
is joining our lineup at FrenchKit!
👉
📢 Today we're opening the Frenchkit 2019 CfP.
You want to see our awesome venue from a different perspective? Submit a talk proposal, so you might be on stage in Paris on next October.
👉 👈
⏰ But don't be late: the CfP ends June 21!
While it won't probably the first time you’ve met our pal
@twannl
at
@frenchkitconf
, this September will indeed be the first time you’ll see him on the big stage.
We hope you’ll be up for a well deserved welcome! 🙌
She's undeniably one of the most active authors these days thanks to the number of publications on her blog, on
@kodecov
and her participations to the best iOS conferences out there:
@dvrzan
is finally joining us on stage at Swift Connection!
Meet her in September in Paris!
Alright, you might know Swift Concurrency already. But what about distributed actors? We haven't been this excited for a Swift technology since a long time, and so does
@franklefebvre
who'll lead a dedicated classroom on the topic!
Is there anybody more knowledgeable about Server-Side Swift than
@0xTim
? Probably not. Will he be at Swift Connection this year? Definitely yes. And with a Server-Side Swift classroom!
Today we’ve started working on reviewing the 110+ proposals we have received. We’re truly surprised by the quantity and quality of talks you have submitted. From the bottom of our Swifty hearts, thank you 🙌.
(By the way, expect news in the following weeks!)
In Paris, it is that time of the year when ☀️ starts warming the air and developers begin binge-reading rumours on the WWDC.
In Paris, it is that time of the year when FrenchKit tickets get available. Early Birds are now flying like Swifts in the air!
📝 And, finally, Call for Papers!
Our CfP is now open, running from today through June 20th.
[Pro-ish tip: set an alarm called “Wake me up from WWDC binge-watching”].
👉
📣 Recent studies show that SwifUI is best when livecoded.
Which partially explains why we couldn't resist inviting
@ChrisEidhof
.
We're verry happy to have him on stage at FrenchKit 🎉
Sadly, adding server-side features is not always an easy task for mobile developers. Here's where Cloud Functions come to the rescue! With
@zamzampooya
you'll want to put Xcode aside and get to know the powerful yet simple stack for creating back-end features in a breeze!
📢 Today, we don’t have one speaker to announce, but two!
Let start with
@fpillet
: Florent will be giving a classroom on Combine!
📚He co-authored Ray Wenderlich’s book on RxSwift, and co-authoring a new book about Combine.
Ok, that took longer than expected (as most things in dev), but here we go:
Introducing async.TechConnection, our platform listing talks, contents - and transcripts! - for FrenchKit and our other conferences and meetups 👇
🎟 FrenchKit tickets are now available.
🧐 If you want to attend FrenchKit at a discount price: grab an early bird ticket.
💡 Pro-tip: the early bird tickets are going fast. Don't wait too much.
👉
🍺 If you have a Mac, you’re quite certainly using his indispensable Homebrew. And, if you’re relying on PromiseKit, you should thank him for that too! 🤝
We’re proud to welcome
@mxcl
on stage next September!
👉
Coming back to a (bigger) FrenchKit stage after the pandemic,
@MvpOhhhDrey
will dive deep into iOS widgets and Live Activities, the new kid in the block!
📢 The second speaker to join our lineup is ... Anastasiia Voitova (a.k.a.
@vixentael
🦊). She's a well-known security & cryptography expert 🔐.
We're very happy to have her on stage next October 😃.
👉 Info and tickets:
We're not sure
@merowing_
needs any introduction at all - but we'll try: one of the most active and proficient members of our community, author of Sourcery, Inject, LifetimeTracker, Playgrounds for ObjC and much more will be on stage at Swift Connection.
Is this huge? It is.
FrenchKit 22 is completely sold out 😳. Since we’re limited by the venue capacity, we can’t sell more tickets.
🔁If you have a ticket, but changed your plans: ping us ! We’ll relay your message here. So you’ll be able to transfer your ticket to someone who couldn’t get it.
Did you hear about something called SwiftUI?🤔 If yes, you may know
@Dimillian
: he's very active on Swift UI.
📣 We are really proud to announce that Thomas will be on stage at FrenchKit for a great SwiftUI talk.
Alright folks, does
@hiddevdploeg
's feed give you that "let's create something amazing" vibe too - and then you open Figma and you're like "srsly idk where 2 start lol"?
If it's the case, it's for people like you that we're so amazed of having Hidde at Swift Connection this year!
📚 Years ago,
@objcio
brought a new way of writing tech content with beautiful monthly issues. That paved the way for inspiring books and the great Swift Talk series.
Behind that, there's a bunch of great folks and, of course,
@chriseidhof
.
You know what? He’ll be at FrenchKit!
💉 (Not just) another excellent comeback from 2022:
@simonbs
, author of the excellent Runestone and Scriptable apps among others, going straight to the root of Software Engineering with a talk on the Composition Root Dependency Injection pattern.
(Bad pun intended. Sorry.)
We’re happy to say that David Bonnet joins the Frenchkit lineup 🎉. He will inaugurate a new format on stage: the Swift capsules (stay tuned for more details).
But there is more:
@iGranDav
also give two classrooms about Swift Server !
✋ Alright, our CfP is now over and we cannot be happier about the quantity and quality of proposals we’ve received this year: we’ll be having some rough days selecting the talks!
We're proud to announce that
@bitrise
will be sponsoring FrenchKit this year 🎉.
You'll be able to meet them during the breaks or during a classroom about CI/CD for your mobile apps 🤖.
That’s it: we finally reviewed aaaaaallll the CfP submissions for FrenchKit. It’s been tough: we’ve received a lot of truly amazing proposals👍
📨 All participants should be notified in the following days. If not: ping us.
📻 Stay tuned for next speakers to announce!
👾 There's a lot to cover on Swift and iOS/macOS frameworks, including games. Our old fellow
@macistador
has been spending most of his free time deep diving into implementing gaming mechanics on Apple tech and we're more than happy to have him share his learnings on stage!
We all agree on the importance of accessibility -- but how do you apply best software development on accessibility features?
@RobinKanatzar
has some great answers to that, with automated testing and advanced tooling!
All the tickets have been sold out in 2 weeks 😳. We don't know what to say except: thank you for your trust!
For those who want a ticket: we don't have any other tickets to sell. Bu we've created a waiting list if actual attendees change their plans:
And here are our winners: Team B (please comment with the proper team name 😉). Your skills were impressive despite the really tough Jury!
#bringOldSiriBack
#frenchkit
Some people like to live dangerously. Is this guy about to live code in SwiftUI ? For the third time in FrenchKit history, please welcome
@chriseidhof
on stage
And, u̶m̶m̶, last but not least for today, a talk about, u̶m̶m̶, probably Core ML? We believe
@yonomitt
will explain us how (not) to get rid of those boring "umms" in your speech using Apple's ML stack. (Spoiler: it might be hilarious).
We had 0 doubts about that, but it looks like
@DeepDishSwift
was a blast (also probably bc Illinois was first visited by French explorers).
“Chapeau Bas” for the speakers and for the supreme
@joshdholtz
. It’s always great to see there is always so much going on in the iOS space!
He is both designer and developer.
No more excuse when your screen is not pixel perfect!
@hiddevdploeg
draws the big picture of best practices to make the most out of the two worlds.
Welcome on stage, Hidde!
When it comes to international apps and all the languages you need to handle, you have few options: either you make your users learn Esperanto...
...or you find a better way.
Let's make a trip with
@dvrzan
to figure out how.
Welcome on stage Danijela!
We❤️collaborating with sponsors to create special content for the conf. So, we can’t be happier to announce that
@Netatmo
is prepping a bold new classroom on Property Wrappers and Function Builders, held by
@MartialLienert
on both days. Could anyone be more 5.1ish? We doubt it!
In the meanwhile, we have a bunch more speakers to announce, starting with
@JeffreyMacko
, developer and Continuous Integration wizard at
@SoLocalGroup
in Paris! 🧙♂️
