At WWDC 2014 Apple introduced Swift, a new programming language for iOS and OS X developers. Objective-C has had a long and distinguished run with Apple, but times change and we move on. In recognition of this, and in reference to the [objC retain]; shirts of days gone by, I set up a Teespring campaign to say goodbye– gradually– to Objective-C.
Why not [objC release];? Swift is the clear way forward, but Objective-C won’t be disappearing right away.
