The good news is that many technical quirks tend to follow certain patterns that can be easily spotted—even by non-engineers. Here are four technical hiccups associated with corrupt event tracking data, how to spot them, and what to do about them. As they say—garbage in, garbage out. Event stuttering. Disjoint event duplicates.

Never before has there been better access to rich and nuanced data about the ways your users engage with your products. Pulling it together.

Rather than a UITableViewController with accompanying storyboard and custom UITableViewCell subclasses, all we need now is a binding to a list of tasks and 10-ish lines of actual code: struct TaskListView: View {. Use custom event initializers to reduce footprint. Use custom view modifiers for more logical grouping. onDrag {. }.onDrop
