iOS Dev Discussions - Sean Allen

In this episode of What I'm Working On, I discuss how the launch of my latest course, "Dub Dub Grub" went and how that led to me being burnt out. I also discuss what I'm going to focus on for the rest of 2021 with CreatorView and how that wasn't an easy decision even though it's REALLY what I want to do. I give my thoughts on WWDC 2021 among many other topics.  YouTube Video Version - https://youtu.be/m8K4j3NV56U If you like my teaching or presentation style, I've started creating my own courses: https://seanallen.teachable.com/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/seanallen_dev Timestamps: 0:00 - What is this show? 0:37 - Episode Topic Rundown 1:31 - Dub Dub Grub Launch Results 6:23 - Course Burnout 8:15 - The Rest of 2021 9:35 - CreatorView Decision 13:15 - Course Advertising 15:27 - CreatorView: Zero To One 18:47 - Finance Channel Update 20:01 - Consulting: Business Evolving 23:34 - Sponsor Update 25:45 - WWDC Thoughts 30:14 - DeFi App Job Update 31:48 - Angel Investing Link to my book - How I Became an iOS Developer: https://gumroad.com/l/sean-allen-origin Hired.com: https://hired.com/x/1n01g Book and learning recommendations that help out the channel if you decide to purchase (Affiliate Links): Paul Hudson's Hacking With Swift: https://gumroad.com/a/762098803 Donny Wals - Combine: https://gumroad.com/a/909014131 Mark Moeyken’s SwiftUI Books: www.bigmountainstudio.com/swiftui-views-book/fzc51 Objc.io Books (Thinking in SwiftUI & Advanced Swift): https://gumroad.com/a/656585843 Ray Wenderlich Books: https://store.raywenderlich.com/a/20866/link/1 Links to my iOS Dev Setup & iOS Dev Book Recommendations https://www.amazon.com/shop/seanallen --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/seanallen/support

Today I sit down with Chris Mauldin, iOS Developer at Aluna to get an update on his career at the 1.5 years of experience mark. For those that don't remember, we hired Chris at Aluna based off my YouTube video that specifically looked to hire someone for their first job. Chris ended up getting this job and we did further podcast episodes discussing his first 30 days on the job. Now we're checking in with Chris after a year and a half to see how it's been going.
