Bruno Rocha's Projects

Bruno Rocha's Projects

Here you can find a (mostly) complete list of my side projects and open source contributions!

Side Projects

  • SwiftRocks: The website you're reading right now!
  • Burnout Buddy: App Blocker for iOS that I created to reduce my social media usage.
  • Build Failed Podcast: A brazilian podcast about iOS development and the software engineering industry that I created with two friends. We recorded 51 episodes together before I left to focus on other projects, but my friends still run it and I have been showing up every once in a while as a guest.
  • Swordz: YouTube channel where I posted funny Source Filmmaker videos involving Dota 2 characters. The channel had at its peak 90.000 subscribers before I got bored and moved on. To this day I regret not pushing just a little bit further in order to cross 100k and get that sweet YouTube Silver Play button!
  • (a bunch of small iOS apps I created to solve very specific problems that are sadly not available anymore)
  • (a bunch of Unity games I made between 2012-2015 that are sadly not available anymore)

Open Source

  • Swift Programming Language (contributor): I've authored and implemented SE-0290 (Negative Availability, a.k.a #unavailable). I've also contributed with many bug fixes and improvements to the syntax highlighter and helped port some of its features to Swift's LSP when it was first announced.
  • SwiftShield (author): Compile-time code obfuscation for Swift apps. If I'm not mistaken SwiftShield was actually recommended by the OWASP Foundation and other iOS security experts at the time, though this has since stopped being the case as I lost interest in maintaining the project and recommended against its usage in production apps.
  • SwiftInfo (author): CLI that extracts and analyses metrics relevant to Swift apps such as app size, number of dependencies, number of warnings, and more.
  • WriteIt (author): Static HTML website generator for blogs. The tool that powers this very blog!
  • RouterService (author): Type-safe dependency injection framework for highly-modularized apps. A simplified version of actual DI frameworks used in Spotify and AirBnB.
  • (many small contributions to various open source projects not interesting enough to mention individually)
  • (many other small Swift frameworks not interesting enough to mention individually)
