Dev Conversations #5: Mikaela CaronMikaela Caron learned how to code after studying mechanical and electrical engineering in college. When SwiftUI was first released, she preferred to learn UIKit as it was a more mature framework, and later returned to SwiftUI a few years later.

At the SwiftServer Conference, Mikaela gave two interesting talks, in 2022 and 2024. After working as an iOS developer at Lickability, she decided to become independent, dividing her time between freelancing work, her own...
