Welcome to 2017, I hope you had a pleasant ending to a horrible, awful, very bad year. 2016 was an interesting year for me. That said, my love of apps hasn’t diminished. This is part one of some standout apps and products from this last year. Some new, some updated significantly, some just so useful I can’t help mentioning them.

Review Comments Questions & Answers Update program info. May 18, 2015 - “25 Mac Tools for Productive Coding” is published by freeCodeCamp in. And have debugging consoles that are critical for web developers.

I’ve done this every year since 2011, and they’re typically some of my most popular posts (among ones that don’t get linked from bigger sites), so I hope you enjoy them. The posts in this year’s series will include:. Productivity and communication apps (macOS).

Design, Photo, and Audio/Video (macOS). Utilities and Developer tools (macOS). Top iOS apps.

As Mac users, we’re spoiled when it comes to managing our tasks. There are several cross-platform and web-based task management tools we can use. Keygen generator mac. But, even better, this is a category of apps that are well-represented by Apple developers. In fact, the options are plentiful enough that choosing just one productivity app to use is not easy.

My favorite 2016 projects. Probably a catch-all post for the less easily categorized picks Without further ado, part 1: Productivity and Communication. Productivity I’m going to start with what we’ll call “the ‘obvious’ list.” They’re apps I love and absolutely deserve mention, but that I’ve talked about enough across my various channels that I probably don’t need to elaborate on too much.

Any section in this series that contains such apps will have an “obvious list.” The “Obvious” List Apps I use daily and don’t function without:. The standouts: I’d been using as my newsreader for quite a while, but ran into some bugs around the same time Reeder 3 was released. The bugs are fixed now, but I’d already switched to Reeder and and it’s been great.

By the way, I settled on Feedbin as my primary RSS sync, though and both have their strengths. I mentioned Spillo in my top picks last year as well. Despite the proliferation of “read later” services and Instapaper premium features, Pinboard remains both my primary bookmarking platform and my “read later” workflow. Spillo is still the best native client for Pinboard on the Mac. I’ve used Billings and now Billings Pro for all of my freelance and sponsorship invoicing for years. Last year’s features has been very cool, but mostly I love it as a time tracking and invoice management system.

I never get tired of talking about Paprika, especially because this last year has led to some very serious culinary endeavors for me. Excellent parsing of online recipes, tagging and rating, and shared shopping lists and meal calendars make it indispensable year after year.

This one is new to me. I’ve experimenting with binaural beats for a while. After having my ADHD meds taken away last year, I began a desperate search for ways to compensate.

I found isochronic tones, which pulse at specific frequencies like binaural beats, but don’t require stereo headphones. Brainwave Studio is a $9 app that lets you build your own sessions with isochronic tones, ambient sounds, and music tracks. Communication Twitter’s native app on the Mac has been love/hate. Ever since they started shunning 3rd party developers, the latest features of Twitter often require using it despite its shortcomings. Tweetbot has kept up nicely, though, and is my default client.

There has been a somewhat dizzying number of elegant and reliable email clients released/refreshed this year. Is fascinating, has added some amazing productivity features, and apps like have made email beautiful. Despite all of this, nothing has come close to replacing MailMate for me. Stay tuned for the next “Best of 2016” post shortly!

Whatever the language or platform, developers want the same thing – to create app experiences that are high-quality, intelligent and personalized. Experiences that delight users and keep them engaged. To do that, we need tools that increase our productivity, so that we spend more time on what matters most to our app’s success. At we are showcasing new tools and services that demonstrate Microsoft’s commitment to developer productivity and incredible app experiences. Visual Studio App Center – Build, Test, Deploy, Engage, Repeat. Today we announced the General Availability of Visual Studio App Center (formerly known as the Mobile Center Preview), a groundbreaking new developer service that helps you ship apps more frequently, at higher-quality, and with greater confidence. App Center is designed for all apps targeting iOS, Android, Windows, and macOS, whether written with Swift, Objective-C, Java, C#, Javascript, or any other language.

Mac Os X Developer Tools

Delivering fantastic app experiences takes more than great authoring tools. You also need to continuously build, test, deploy, and monitor real-world apps usage, and iterate.

One option is to stitch together multiple products into a workflow, but maintaining and building connections between these systems introduces risk and costs time, which takes you away from your mission of creating great apps. That’s why we created App Center, a one-stop service for everything you need to manage your app lifecycle. Just connect your repo to App Center, and within minutes automate your builds, test on real devices in the cloud, distribute apps to beta testers, and monitor real-world usage with crash and analytics data. All in one place. You can use all of App Center or mix-and-match just the services you need. With App Center, you can:.

Build your apps in the cloud, with every commit or on-demand, without managing build agents. Test apps on thousands of real iOS and Android devices using XCUITest, Espresso, Appium, and other popular test frameworks. Distribute your apps to beta testers and users on Android, iOS, Windows, and macOS with every commit or on demand.

And when you’re ready, deploy to public app stores or Intune. Monitor apps for crashes and create automatic work items in your bug tracker. Analyze user behavior with out-of-the-box reports, custom event tracking, and continuous export to Azure Application Insights for deeper analysis. Engage your users with push notifications For a deeper dive on App Center, check out on the App Center blog. Or just give it a try – and let us know what you think.

Visual Studio Live Share Today we also announced that we’re working on a new feature we call Visual Studio Live Share. Getting quick peer feedback and demonstrating your work can be tough. Screen-sharing solutions don’t convey the full context or enable the developers to independently explore the source code or debugger state. If you need to set up an environment or sync a repo to collaborate, you often won’t bother.

Calling someone over to your desk is great, but it’s not possible when you work with remote teammates. With Visual Studio Live Share, you can share the full context of your code with your teammate instantly and securely. Your teammate can edit and debug with you in real-time in their personalized editor or IDE, enabling real-time collaboration. Visual Studio Tools for AI When creating an application, some features are much easier to build when using a special-purpose library, like compressing files or generating a PDF. Making intelligent applications is no different: trained deep-learning models are like libraries you can include in your app to do amazing new things like recognizing objects in pictures, translating speech, and more.

Developer's Productivity Tools For Mac Pro

To make it easier for you to infuse AI into your apps, we’ve made Visual Studio a great place to train the models you need and then use them in your application like any other resource. And today we are proud to announce, a free extension that works with Visual Studio 2015 and Visual Studio 2017.

This new extension makes it easy to get started training models using any of the popular deep learning frameworks including TensorFlow, CNTK, Theano, Keras, Caffe2 and more with new VS Project templates. Visual Studio is a great IDE to train your models because it’s so easy to step through and debug the training code. Models are often written with Python and Visual Studio is a powerful Python IDE. We also integrated TensorBoard monitoring within Visual Studio. You can use TensorBoard to visualize the quality of your model, plot quantitative metrics about the execution of your graph, and show additional data like images that pass through it.

To make you even more productive when training your models, Visual Studio Tools for AI integrates with Azure Batch AI and Azure Machine Learning services, so that you can submit deep learning jobs to Azure GPU VMs, Spark clusters and more. Many developers test their models on smaller data sets on a dev box, and then train against larger datasets in the cloud. And running your code in the cloud doesn’t mean you have any less visibility with the integrated job monitoring in Visual Studio Tools for AI. You can even upload data and download logs and models all from within Visual Studio. Once training is complete, building intelligent applications in Visual Studio is as easy as putting your trained model in your app just like any other library or resource.

Having your model-training code with your app code, using the same process to manage your complete solution helps provide a seamless way to design, build, validate, and deploy your intelligent app end-to-end.

Visual Studio for Mac The latest Visual Studio for Mac offers something for everyone. For mobile developers, our iOS development experience is smoother, as Visual Studio can now make use of Fastlane to automatically set up your devices for development and manage the provisioning profiles for you.

It also fully supports the new iOS 11, tvOS 11 and watchOS 4 APIs. Along with support for the new.NET Core 2, we also have added Docker support allowing your web backends and applications to be deployed directly to Azure App Service from the IDE. And VSTest support gives Visual Studio for Mac developers an integrated experience for a wide array of popular test frameworks, including MSTest and Xunit. For more details, check out the. Xamarin With.NET Embedding, developers can now turn their.NET Code into native libraries for Android and iOS, which can be integrated into existing codebases written in Swift, Java or Objective-C. And, we are now shipping the Xamarin Live Player as a preview in Visual Studio and Visual Studio for Mac, enabling developers to write code that is updated live as on their device or simulator as they code, changing the way you will develop mobile applications forever. More details are available on Joseph Hill’s post on the. First class Kubernetes support Building containerized, microservices based apps is difficult. Kubernetes has made it easy to deploy and run containers but you still have to figure out how to work on your code in the context of the overall application.

Collaboration with other developers is tricky as they make changes to other microservices in the same app. Visual Studio Connected Environment for AKS enables you to rapidly and safely develop, debug and test your microservices by extending your local dev experience to a Kubernetes based environment on Azure. You get the full experience of working in Visual Studio and Visual Studio Code but you are always working on your code within the context of other microservices that your code supports or depends on.
