Swift Craft is a brand new Swift developers' conference in the UK. In a theater, set in the coastal cliffs of Folkestone overlooking the English Channel, this is an event with more than just UIViews!

With international experts to engage, educate and entertain us, we put the focus back on the craft of writing Swift code.

Swift Craft is nearly over, and we couldn't have pulled it off without our sponsors!

We'd like to give a big thanks for Appcircle for being our Silver Sponsor, and also providing extra content in the form of a sponsored talk introducing us to the world of Mobile DevOps (watch for it on YouTube when the videos are released).

Who are Appcircle? I'll let them explain in their own words:


Appcircle is a mobile CI/CD (Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery) platform that facilitates the development, testing, and deployment of mobile applications in a Public Cloud, Private Cloud or Self- Hosted environment. It provides a comprehensive suite of tools and services designed to streamline the entire mobile app development lifecycle. Key features of Appcircle include:

  1. Automated Build Environment: Allows developers to automate the process of building their mobile applications, ensuring consistency and reducing manual errors.
  2. Testing: Provides tools for automated testing, including unit tests, UI tests, and other types of quality assurance to ensure the app functions as expected.
  3. Deployment: Facilitates the deployment of mobile apps to various app stores or distribution platforms (including its own Enterprise App Store for internal applications), automating the delivery process.
  4. Integration: Supports integration with popular version control systems, such as Git, and other development tools to enhance the workflow.
  5. Monitoring and Analytics: Offers insights and analytics on app performance and deployment processes, helping developers optimize their workflows.

Appcircle aims to make mobile app development more efficient by automating repetitive tasks, improving collaboration among development teams, and ensuring high-quality releases.


We're very grateful to all our sponsors for supporting Swift Craft and helping us to put on a great conference!

Location

Swift Craft is hosted at the Leas Cliff Hall in Folkestone in Kent, UK, overlooking the English Channel. This historic seaside town is also home to the channel tunnel and, as such, has excellent links to the rest of europe. It's also very accessible from London with the UK's (currently) only high speed link, the HS1.

The Leas Cliff Hall is a working theater that also has a dedicated conference suite. Built into the cliffs, and with floor-to-ceiling glass overlooking the sea on three sides, the views are spectacular!

The venue is about a 15 minute walk from Folkestone Central station, or ten minutes walk to the bustling town centre. As well as the modern town the old quarter, home to art galleries, curio shops and bohemian cafes and restaurants, extends down to the picturesque harbour. It's no wonder The Times voted it one of the best places to live in 2023.

Although the venue is split across three floors, connected via staircases, it is also fully accessible via elevator.
