This document discusses tools and techniques for improving development efficiency as a solo developer. It recommends using keyboard shortcuts and tools like KeyRemap4Macbook and BetterTouchTool to optimize workflows. It also advocates automating processes through a continuous integration system like Jenkins to run nightly builds, tests, and deployments. The goal is to work productively alone through shortcuts, standardized development practices, and automation.
The document discusses Retty's team development method which focuses on accelerating development through the use of web views. It summarizes that Retty apps use many UIWebViews to allow non-iOS engineers to create and modify app UIs through web pages, web APIs, HTML, CSS, and JavaScript displayed locally or remotely. This approach allows for dynamic content and screen transitions through a custom URL scheme. Development is supported across production, staging, and individual developer environments hosted on AWS services with regular switching and testing between environments.
