Collectively, the engineers at Lickability have worked with dozens of iOS development teams, shipping countless features, new products, redesigns, and Swift rewrites. Ten years in, our processes have evolved into a well-oiled machine with collaboration at the core of our day-to-day engineering. Whether we’re augmenting a client’s existing iOS team or acting as the sole developers, and whether we’re building a social network, news reader, or game, our approach to collaborating on code remains largely the same. We find it important to follow a few key guidelines on every product we help ship, and would like to share them with you.
