I used to use a physical whiteboard but quicky ran out of space... Now I use the free account of realtimeboard.com
Also I link out to Google docs etc within it. However its not the quickst tool to get an idea on record...

Well its not as prevalent as I initially thought upon looking into my Spotify Psy-trance play list... I seems like I was thinking more about tech-trance. But never the less here is some examples I did find upon a quick look
Ellez Ria - Overdrive (Original Mix) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N8MoltyYRaM Acid lines are used pretty heavily throughout the track
Liquid Soul & Vini Vici - Universe Inside Me https://youtu.be/yvBK1rSUzTc?t=226 A acid line slowly filters in at 3:44
Liquid Soul & Zyrus 7 aka Talla 2XLC - The Future (Liquid Soul Mix) https://youtu.be/9Wm4PJszzuo?t=313 Two Acid lines start to filter in at 5:13

Hi Adam, thanks for your work on WebMIDI and AudioKit.
I am currently experimenting with the current Midi functionality in AudioKit along with a Swift music theory library https://github.com/danielbreves/MusicTheory to compose and sequence music. Using Audiokit to send Midi events to Logic pro
Does/will WebMIDI support any kind of Automation events through an easy to use abstraction? Thanks again

I think the author was meaning it more in terms of MVC in the iOS project
- Web dev -
Backend dev scope: Model, Controler
Front end dev scope: views
- Mobile dev -
Where as with an mobile dev, their scope is model, view and controller code (full stack)
Your thinking of it in terms of the whole mobile app being the front end and the rest API being the backend. But the app its self has both "front end" and "backend" code segregation its self

My experience with AWS has been exactly this. I had a Cognito question/issue on IOS that I posted to stack-overflow and got a quick response from an engineer at Amazon. Also I posted a support ticket (zero paid support) to increase my sns API calls limit (which didn't end up being required because I was doing it wrong) and they got back to me over a few days to a week.
On the other hand, Google takes my Android app off the play store with next to zero details on the reason why and I have next to zero methods to contact them. The only way I was able to get my app back was to remove features via trial and error to determine what part was infringing. Why would i partner with Google again for hosting?

Mindset is everything (at-least extremely important for any level of success in entrepreneurship and most other things)
Most entrepreneurs solving ambitious problems look crazy to outsiders. Hence the famous Steve Jobs quote
"The people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world are the ones who do."
Look at what the Gates, Jobs and Musks of this world have achieved with their 'anything-is-possible' mindsets..
Btw, for those who are interested in this stuff I've created an app to help people develop a growth/positive mindset at http://positivethinking.net

As someone who has developed an app for Android (going into it knowing Java really well) and now porting it to iOS using swift ( not knowing Swift at all), the language is actually the least of your worries. It's like you say the tooling, the paradigms, the UI and libraries, SQLite etc which are the biggest learning challenges. Also mobile dev is unique in its self (limited hardware & no reliable network conn)
That's been my experience anyway...

Even though I've been programming/developing software for 10+ years, number 4 is still relevant to me also.
What I've found is taking on the attitude of "make it work, then make it right" works well for me.
With anything moderately complex and new, you are never going to fully understand everything and get it right the first time. The best strategy is just hack something together until it "works", then constantly be revising and refactoring from there. Instead of spending hours architecting, reading and planning just jump in and start coding.
Or else you just end up in analysis paralysis or over engineering.
I'm working on a project which uses Golang, swift (ios) and Postgresql which are all new technologies for me. I haven't read a single book on any of them, I just jumped straight in and started developing. And bit by bit, line by line I have made good measurable progress.
"Plan to throw one away" applies here also - http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?PlanToThrowOneAway
