Hey, we wanted to pitch a short mention of our brand-new developer website www.apple-developer.org ( and its sister domain www.swift-developer.org which leads directly to Swifty news ).

www.apple-developer.org aims to fill the void of any websites with news and resources for Mac & iOS developers.
The resources-section has over 350 hierarchically organised links to interesting resources like apps, libraries, blogs, podcasts, books and conferences.
The news-section aims to be a one-stop-solution for any developer looking to keep up-to-date with everything happening in the Swift & ObjC developer worlds.
