Hi! Great series. Thanks for all the tips.
Will you do a video or two on Testing (Unit Testing, UI Testing) later on? I think it may help a lot of people.

Hi,

Do you know why xcode might be saying "*** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInternalInconsistencyException', reason: 'attempt to insert item 3 into section 0, but there are only 3 items in section 0 after the update'"

Thank you! This is really helpful!

Hey Brian,
I like the way you code without the storyboard and view files...i really hate those things. Excellent tutorials and are very easy to follow as well.
By the way i have a question for you, how can we implement a swipe cell like MGSwipeTablecell with UICollectionView?

Hey Brian. I have multiple error messages when I download the completed source code. I was wondering if you could help me solve them. Also your videos are awesome and I can really see your channel blowing up.

Hi, I have a question regarding your cleaver function String, views: UIView...). I have some difficulties understanding the format concept. Example if you would have a UIView placed in (X, Y) position of the main view with a height of H and width of W, how would you define it in the format?

BTW you have awesome SWIFT build guides :)

Thanks in in advance (Sry for my bad English)

Did I miss something or is there still a problem loading new messages.  At the beginning of the course we do a ClearData then a load, how does the new message get appending with this process?

Hello! I have a question.. why are you using UICollectionView instead of using UITableView?

[SteveWoznokav]

insertionIndexPath as IndexPath, at: .bottom, animated: true)

doesn't work on swift 3 it doesn't scroll until the end of the last message?
