Soooo, I'm so excited to talk about this!

About 👍

It's been almost an year since I've been talking with @vsouza about creating an AwesomeiOS Newsletter. Our plan is to have a weekly newsletter that showcases quality iOS libraries, frameworks and other iOS developer tools.
I decided to create this because I'm a big newsletter fan because they always provide amazing new links.

Content 🚀

  • The Newsletter's content would be generated by filtering libs by their quality index, provided by CocoaPods + CocoaDocs.
  • I would then write a small comment about each library.
  • Each email contains an introduction paragraph and 10 links

Reasons ✅

  • AwesomeiOS has been the same for the past 2 years, so we want to grow the project and connect more with our thousands of visitors.
  • The project became too big for someone to go learn about new libraries, so instead of having thousands of libraries in one page, a Newsletter would only show 10.

@lfarah bravo! I assume the amount of stars / forks will determine the weekly selection of 10 libs?

I don't like email newsletters. Is there an option to subscribe RSS?

Hey @natalia-osa. We don't support RSS yet. What you can do is to follow this blog post and create a Zapier workflow that does email to RSS for you
