Mobile app debugging addresses platform-specific issues, device hardware limitations, and mobile-specific network conditions.
Minimal working example:
Xcode Debugging:
Attach Debugger:
- Xcode → Run on device
- Set breakpoints in code
- Step through execution
- View variables
- Console logs
View Logs:
- Xcode → Window → Devices & Simulators
- Select device → View Device Logs
- Filter by app name
- Check system logs for crashes
Inspect Memory:
- Xcode → Debug → View Memory Graph
- Identify retain cycles
- Check object count
- Monitor allocation growth

development
Implement Zero Trust security model with identity verification, microsegmentation, least privilege access, and continuous monitoring. Use when building secure cloud-native applications.
development
Prevent Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) attacks through input sanitization, output encoding, and Content Security Policy. Use when handling user-generated content in web applications.
tools
Create wireframes and interactive prototypes to visualize user interfaces and gather feedback early. Use tools and techniques to communicate design ideas before development.
development
Implement real-time bidirectional communication with WebSockets including connection management, message routing, and scaling. Use when building real-time features, chat systems, live notifications, or collaborative applications.
