The digest of interesting materials for the mobile developer # 248 (April 2 - April 8)

Last week we discussed universal links, A / B, UI and Behavior-Driven testing, voice assistants and voice interfaces, Flutter speed and even keyboard developers.

Universal Links: Pitfall Palace

With how many mobile applications have given humanity, they at the same time “broken” the Internet. Instead of understandable links to sites that you can copy and share, it became necessary to explain "put such and such an application and go there and there."

Hidden order in color chaos

I was lucky at work to do what I love in a strong team with good people. We built and destroyed castles in the air, fought with windmills, implemented, supported and did not worry. Once I wanted to build my castle. Reasoning from different angles, I decided that it would be small, and I will build it myself, it will be a hobby project. There were several ideas, I chose one and started developing, it was a game.
