CICD is so fun 🫠 #swiftlang #github #githubactions #cicd #programming #cicdhell

Huh…the iOS 26 simulator seems to work with older versions of Xcode 🤔🤔 #swiftlang #wwdc #iosdeveloper

Gartner hype cycle - Wikipedia

Everytime I hear another AI company saying we “won’t have to code anymore” I’m reminded of the Hype Cycle. I wonder how many years LLMs have until they fall into the Trough of Disillusionment en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gartner... #programming #AI #llm #swiftlang

Sure, but outside of the most trivial tasks the only time being saved is the actual writing of the code. You still have to fully test and review the code. Actually even MORE so because LLM generation tends toward middling and being outdated

Are you saying AI will allow developers to build things 10x faster? Because like…in most actual developer jobs coding is only like 10% of the time it takes to build a feature anyway 🤣

Checking what bundle is being used would definitely by my recommendation. You won’t be able to use the default methods in your app to access the assets in your package’s bundle. Can get a bit weird 😬

If static URLs work that’s probably the easiest thing. Could even put them in another fit repo if you really don’t want to run a server 😅

My company currently uses it for iOS/Android native

Anything’s possible, but things would have to change a lot for Apple to make development tools for other platforms

I kinda doubt that will happen any time soon, at least not official supported from Apple. Someone could duplicate the API if they want I suppose? But I doubt the end result will be all that similar

If you can use the latest APIs MOST things are possible, and hopefully even more in the betas after WWDC in June. Good luck!

It’s 2025, chances are you don’t have a unique app idea. Don’t over think it, make something simple or make something you just want to make/use!

It’s for people who want to use PHP. Just like KMP is for people who want to use Kotlin and RN is for people who want to use JS 🤷‍♂️

What it wraps is an implementation detail. Most of SwiftUI started as using UIKit components under the hood, and many have changed things over time

Because that’s what’s modern. In a few years you’d regret building it in UIKit

Best skyline in the country!

Is there any way to nicely animate UINavigationBar changes? (Showing, hiding, changing color?) it seems like it’s always clunky, especially when navigating between screens 😭😭 #iosdeveloper #swiftlang #uikit #swiftui #uinavigationbar

Xcode has the one built in, but copilot’s better IME

I haven’t seen anything that feels modern…I wonder if this is actually a good time to build something new with the latest concurrency support 🤔

Whoa I hadn’t heard of this either! pkl-lang.org cool to see something come out of Apple that works with other languages/editors from day 1

UIKit’s lineage goes back to OSX and even NEXT so of course it’s more stable. SwiftUI is being built for the future unlikely to catch up to UIKit for another ~5 years. Thats why it’s not deprecated. We can/should still use it

Hm…I wonder how hard it would be to change 🤔

I feel like the only place I’ve seen that is when Xcode stubs methods…Swift doesn’t even do it in Swift 😭😭😭 github.com/swiftlang/sw...

You can have them generated, yes. What you can’t do is know whether you have the legal right to use it. What you CAN know is it’s not IP you own 😬

Method KeyPaths might be coming to #swiftlang?!?! This will make filter/map with KeyPaths 🔥🔥🔥🔥 github.com/swiftlang/sw...

It’s good other than when it isn’t 😅. Though it’s nice there’s at least some kind of autocomplete when the compiler version isn’t working. Which is…often 🤣

Ah I see! I suppose the Swift’s version of that is Collection’s map, reduce, filter, etc.

Do you have an example?

The latest is pretty decent, but lot of us have to work 3 versions behind 😬😭

Swift has the best enums ❤️❤️
