Finally back in Madrid after the Apple TV Tech Talks in London. I really had a great time there meeting some friends but also lots of new people! We also had the chance to ask some questions to Apple engineers and get some help to improve our app.
Regarding the talks themselves, I liked them but they were too basic for my (current) knowledge, but I'm sure other people enjoyed them far more than me!
Anyway it's good to confirm that the hard time I had while developing the app wasn't (entirely) my fault, but mostly because of tvOS bugs (totally understandable).
Looking forward to the next event! (Whichever it is 😆)

Related to our work on the Plex for Apple TV app, I had the chance to give a talk to 30-40 people in the office of Karumi (great persons, even better devs!!), which was recorded and published by Autentia.
In this talk, poorly named "Introduction to Apple TV development", I explain all the problems we faced and decisions we made to get the app ready for the Apple TV launch day, but unfortunately for non-Spanish speakers, I did it in my mother language 😅
You can watch the entire talk with slides here: Introducción al desarrollo en Apple TV - Sergio Padrino

For those who're not aware, a couple of months ago we released our Plex for Apple TV app. Since Apple announced this new device, we had to work really hard to get the app ready for the launch day. Luckily, we made it and things seem to be going pretty well.

For those times you need something more than UIViewAnimationCurveEase[In|Out|InOut], now you can use SPEasingCurves to create more realistic animations.

During the development of Fever and Plex apps, in several occasions I needed to draw a circle to create a circular progress view (just like DACircularProgress) with beautiful animations when progress changes.
However, I've always encountered a disturbing bug(?) drawing those circles that was driving me crazy.
