MCP (Model Context Protocol) is an open standard that lets AI agents connect to external tools and data sources in a consistent, secure way. We can think of the MCP as a USB-C port for AI agents. This open protocol from Anthropic (the guys who built the Claude chatbot) enables AI applications to plug into external tools without any custom glue code.

You asked for it. We built it. Our new MCP server means you can debug directly inside your AI coding tool using real app data from Bugfender. You can use it to: It works with Cursor, Claude Code, Codex and Gemini CLI. This article will show you how to install the Bugfender MCP server, which tools your agent can access, and how the companion skills help you fix bugs faster.

Since its debut in June 2023, SwiftData has fundamentally changed how Apple developers approach persistence. Devs the world over love it for its versatility, its declarative ease and its powerful querying system. But if you’re new, SwiftData can take some getting used to. Failures can feel less transparent and relationships can play out differently to how you might expect. So in this tutorial we’ll show you how SwiftData works and how to.

Push notifications are one of the most powerful retention tools in mobile. iOS opt-in rates average 40–45%, and apps that use push effectively can triple their long-term retention. However poorly timed, poorly crafted alerts can drain our open rates, leading to opt-outs and disengagement. When designing iOS push notifications, we need to think about engagement and retention, not just impressions.

UIKit is Apple’s primary framework for building user interfaces on iPhone and iPad. If you’ve read that it’s about to be deprecated, don’t believe the reports. In 2026 UIKit remains as integral to production apps as it’s ever been. In this guide we’ll focus on how UIKit actually works. The lifecycle timing, the navigation structure, the memory management and (our favorite) the production debugging. You’ll find it useful if you’re.

PHP applications are often tricky to debug. A combination of loose typing, complex logic and a lack of runtime visibility can make it hard to catch errors before they reach our users. But if you’re using PHP, there’s no need to stress. This guide will equip you to understand why PHP applications break, return the wrong data or behave differently across environments. We’ll cover logs, runtime checks, Xdebug, IDE tools, request debugging, and production visibility.

Xcode is the default development environment for building apps on Apple platforms. If you’re creating iOS, macOS, watchOS, or tvOS apps, you’ll end up in Xcode – whether you planned to or not. Xcode is powerful, reliable and intuitive. But it’s also opinionated. Learning how it expects you to work is often the difference between feeling productive and stuck.

JavaScript breakpoint is a pause point in code execution. Breakpoints are one of the most crucial tools available to us when debugging. Simply put, they enable us to pause our program in real time and inspect a particular chunk of code. We may have suspicions that a particular line is causing our app to crash, or simply want to check part of the call stack. Breakpoints give us this flexibility.

Choosing between Android and iOS programming shapes literally every aspect of your programming life. The way you build. The costs you face. The complexity of your testing, the strategy of your distribution and the long-term scalability of your project. Both platforms are mature and capable of supporting complex, high-performance applications, but there are trade-offs.

Breakpoints are one of the most useful tools we can call on when we’re debugging applications. If you’re not familiar, they allow us to pause execution and examine what the program is doing at that moment. And Android Studio offers a whole bunch of add-ons to supplement its core functionality. In this guide, we’ll show you how Android Studio breakpoints work and how you can maximize their potential in your day-to-day work.
