In this episode I walk you through how to create an extension on Optional String type to default nil strings to an empty string. This little shortcut can greatly reduce the amount of ifelsing and if let unwrapping on optional strings in your Swift codebase.This episode's video screencast: https://youtu.be/qzuFvUVuH9UThis episode's audio podcast: https://insideiosdev.com/episodes/swift-optional-string-or-empty-extensionInside iOS Dev YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6zcA3dAMUWN8E2_dlg_WyQ

I'm transitioning to Youtube! Don't worry, the podcast is not over :) I'll be making more and more screencast style videos instead of just audio podcast format. I'll still be having guest over and have conversations with them about the code and I'll be cross posting screencast episodes on the podcast as well. This new direction will allow me to explain the concepts and showcase the code examples better as the audio format can only do so much. Please hop on over to Youtube.
