Swift Performance Tip: Efficiently Caching Colors in your Code
We’ve all written a cute UIColor convenience initialiser to create a color directly from a hex string. But precious clock cycles add up if you’re constantly re-rendering your views and re-running this initialiser.
You can throw in a quick dictionary to cache colours you’ve already computed in order to avoid running the full initialiser each time you re-invoke a hex string.

@amankrai28 “Ease of doing business” will remain a joke in India, until we have corrupt babu mafia in every government department. These are the termites eating India from inside.
