The title should be "Useful Swift Things". I assumed it would be about useful tips and tricks about using iOS on an iPhone.

I'd like to know what sort of "tips and tricks" you expected to be hosted inside of a Github repository.
People use GitHub to store all kinds of useful crowdsourced documents.
Holding down on the keyboard space bar allows you to move the cursor around.
Wow, I didn't know this, thanks.
>Mobile OSes have an intuitive and discoverable UI. That's why they don't have man/info pages.
iOS has a Tips app which shows you stuff like this. Not quite a man page but the closest thing Apple is going to give users.
You can download manuals for most Apple products in the Apple Books store.
Good point, I actually forgot these existed. I guess they could be a bit more prominent.
Have you not come across any of the awesome-* repos?

I personally thought it was one of them but for iOS

e.g. https://github.com/awesome-selfhosted/awesome-selfhosted

Before Apple decided that PC/handheld programming was only something that should be accessible to the elite most people kept scripts and small utility programs on github.
