- I withdrew MiniBluebox, a simple password manager app I wrote, from the Apple App Store in 2016. Since then it became increasingly difficult to keep up with changes Apple introduced on their iCloud/IOS/OSX ecosystem. On some new iPhone models, iCloud synchronisation started to play up and fail. There are also rumours that in late 2017 Apple will drop support for 32-bit apps. Hence MiniBluebox app will simply disappear from all IOS devices with its data. I need a more reliable infrastructure to serve my apps.
- I would like to move away from Apple ecosystem and develop cloud based, service oriented web apps using Open Source technologies. This has many advantages:
- Open source is cheaper
- Open source is incredibly dynamic and fertile
- Brand agnostic (web apps work on all platforms, desktop or mobile
- Service oriented apps are extensible
- Leverage my existing AWS knowledge I have been acquiring for over a year.
- Learn about new technologies such as AWS elastic beanstalk, React.JS, and ESNext.
In this blog I will be writing more about my findings as I go along. Stay tuned.
