iOS Q & A

 

Is Objective-C still relevant for iOS development?

Yes, Objective-C is still relevant for iOS development, especially in maintaining existing projects and integrating with legacy codebases. Objective-C has been used for iOS development since the early days of the platform and continues to be supported by Apple’s development tools and frameworks.

 

While Swift has become the preferred choice for new iOS projects due to its modern features and ease of use, Objective-C remains a valuable skill for iOS developers, particularly those working on projects that rely on legacy code or third-party libraries written in Objective-C.

 

Overall, the choice between Swift and Objective-C depends on factors like project requirements, personal preference, and team expertise. Some developers may choose to use a combination of both languages in their iOS projects, leveraging the strengths of each to achieve their goals.
