A lot of the tech community knows quite a bit about tech, but not everyone out here is a developer. Not everyone knows what’s actually going on behind the scenes (even some that think they do). I’ve been going through a lot of training to develop on Apple’s platforms (just recently I became a certified Swift Developer), so I figured I would go through and talk about all of the resources I’ve utilized from Apple to be able to do all of this.

After giving it a chunk of consideration I arrived at the answer.

So the crux of this thesis is simply: stop looking at new technology like it has to replace something else for it to be successful. You don’t need to replace the smartphone, you don’t need to replace the laptop, and you don’t need to replace the desktop to be considered a successful product. Instead you should look at each product category as another tool that people have to leverage to get their work done.
