Lightweight GCD based HTTP server for OS X & iOS (includes web based uploader & WebDAV server)

GCDWebServer was originally written for the ComicFlow comic reader app for iPad. It allow users to connect to their iPad with their web browser over WiFi and then upload, download and organize comic files inside the app.

GCDWebServer

Ubuntu 14.04LTS – New LTS, desktop looks lot more like Mac OS X, which means it’s friendlier to use.

It’s really difficult to keep up with all the changes given that I work on Objective-C/Cocoa, Ruby, Android, JavaScript, and so much more. I subscribe to these email newsletters and allocate time to go through the changes and upcoming stuff. It initially felt like I was getting spammed, but over time, I found them to be extremely useful. Besides, these are weekly or monthly, so the frequency does not bother me at all. Check it out for yourself.

Data Structure

Why is this important? Understanding of data structure should help with learning other programming languages. Unfortunately, I started with Assembly, so you’ll understand what it was like to program long long time ago. Wiki provides excellent starting point with links.
