Where do External Triggers Belong?

posted in Uncategorized on January 23, 2015 by thall

posted in Uncategorized on January 2, 2015 by thall

Dan Counsell, founder of Realmac Software with an up-front and insightful post about the benefits of selling your software outside the Mac App Store. Imagine if your app made $30,000 in the first month it launched. That’s great, apart from the fact that you have to give Apple $9,000 of that. Is the service they… Continue reading →
