Hello! My name is Zhenya Suvorov, I am the head of the mobile architecture team in Avito. On April 4, we will conduct a live broadcast on our YouTube channel and on social networks and discuss how to keep the product quality at a high level in iOS development even with a strong scaling of the project and the team.

Let's talk on different topics: how to understand that your project has grown, and you need to change approaches to development, what difficulties arise, how to organize team work, touch architecture and code base, compare development metrics in small and large projects, and then - libraries, frameworks, languages ​​- deeper and more interesting. We do not know where the conversation will lead. Experts from Yandex, Sberbank, HeadHunter, OK.RU and Avito will take part in the discussion.

Under the cut - approximate topics that we plan to discuss (and suggest that you add to this list), as well as passwords and turnout for those who want to join the broadcast. Add a post to your bookmarks: after the meeting we will update it and post the video.
