Using #function for UserDefaults key consistency
Here's a neat little trick I use to get UserDefault key consistency in Swift (#function expands to the property name in getters/setters). Just remember to write a good suite of tests that'll guard you against bugs when changing property names.
extension UserDefaults {
var onboardingCompleted: Bool {
get { return bool(forKey: #function) }
set { set(newValue, forKey: #function) }
}
}
