Show HN: a Yelp for iOS developers http://ift.tt/2HNCj8g

Show HN: a Yelp for iOS developers I came up with this idea "a Yelp for developers" when talking with my colleagues. My hypothesis is that, it would be very helpful if we know more about a library before choosing to use it. It's similar to that we want to know more about a restaurant by checking Yelp before visiting it. For example, there're a lot of videos on Youtube advocating how great AsyncDisplayKit (an performant UI library for iOS) is. But it's hard to tell how prod-ready it is. Instead of investing in time to try it out, it would be awesome if I can know about how other people feel about using it. Following this hypothesis, I put together a prototype to showcase the idea: http://branchtip.com/ As an iOS engineer by day, it's currently only for iOS, just so that I can contribute some reviews to it. What do you think of this idea? Feedback would be really appreciated. Cheers, - Kenny March 21, 2018 at 12:24PM

As it stands, handsets that currently feature Type-C ports only ship with a single cable and that annoyingly doesn’t support computer connectivity, so if users want to transfer files to their devices, they have to purchase an additional wire or adapter. However, these accessories aren’t cheap, so customers veer towards the more affordable, third-party cables readily available on marketplaces, such as Amazon and eBay, but that’s not a good thing. Many consumers have reported that these chargers have caused harm to their handsets, so Google Engineer Benson Leung has taken it upon himself to purchase a selection of Type-C connectors from Amazon to test and see if they meet the standard specifications for use on his Nexus device. So far, Leung has been through seven cables and clai...
