Blog post about Silver: how to write an iOS/Android calc

Hi all,

just to let you know that I published this evening a blog post about my first experimentations with Silver and Fire here: http://goo.gl/dw7Uek

This story presents how to implement, with Fire, a crossplatform Android/iOS calculator that share some Silver source code.

Hope you will appreciate it.
Do not hesitate to help to promote it on Twitter too :wink:

Cheers

A comprehensive and inspiring article. Tweeted it.

One suggested typo edit:

" I thougth this"

should be

" I thought this"

Look forward to your next one!

Thanks @Bob_Hoeppner to have red and tweeted it!
Did you try the code?

I thougHT is fixed now ^^
Will come back soon with another one, but need to take a breathe now :wink:

Nicely done Romain! Read and tweeted. I even starred the project on github.

Excellent article Romain. Much appreciated!

@Romain, sorry, I haven’t tried the code. Maybe this weekend. My interest is more in using Swift for .Net than for x-platform, but your article tempts me to give mobile development another try. I have to say I wasn’t thrilled with Xamarin Studio, mostly because of the glacial emulators.

I did, however, also post your link to the Swift Programming Language group in LinkedIn. It’s awaiting approval.

Congratulations!

My link to it was approved in the Swift Programming Language group on LinkedIn. I hope that helps.

I also posted the link to the .Net Rocks! interview with Marc in the Promotions section of that group.

I find I not only like the language, but the people involved with it.

I also created a Google+ Silver community to try to promote Silver on social networks, feel free to join it :wink:

I thought Google+ was (literally) dead/ being shut down?

I think it is not dead at all, I posted an hour ago Silver story in G+ Programming community and it boosted at least 30 additional views on Medium.

Here the referrers stats: G+ has passed Twitter.
Don’t know about “unknown” one’s, it’s strange that 50% of the stats are hidden.

Cool.

FTR, I wasn’t being facetious in a “nobody uses this” way; I thought I heard that Google literally was shutting G+ down.

I think Google shutdown their original social network Orkut, not Google+, but I can be wrong.
