Working with DateInterval in Swift - Programming Live

Richard Topchii refactors CalendarKit live to use the DateInterval API instead of ClosedRange and demonstrates GitHub automation.

In this live coding session we're going to work with the DateInterval Swift struct. We're going to refactor CalendarKit to use the DateInterval API instead of a more generic ClosedRange structure. DateInterval represents the span of time between a specific start date and end date, which is perfect for our use-case. I'll show how to quickly refactor a UI component library as well as demonstrate some of the GitHub automation I'm using to deploy a new version to CocoaPods.
