Here are the 2 tools I use to stay productive every week: * @BearNotesApp for my daily goals * @Apple #Numbers for my weekly goals (one week per sheet) I can't believe I've been doing this for 6 years and still haven't built my own todo app as a replacement. 😅

So I wasn’t planning on buying physical games for the Switch 2 but if I buy something for the kids for Christmas ahead of time it’d have to be right? 🤷♂️

Which apps/designers do you think really cracked Liquid Glass? Not an incremental update with a few glass buttons, but a complete revamp Like Apple did for a lot of their apps. We’re still chipping away on @Weathe_Up_ 4.0. We got a bit overambitious rebuilding the app for iOS

🚀 Just rebuilt MistKit from the ground up! My Swift Package for server-side & CLI CloudKit Web Services now uses AI-generated OpenAPI specs with custom abstractions on top. Article coming soon on the rebuild process 👇 https://t.co/MxK8jFGZiH

I decided to use the LLM tools out there to simplify and abstract SwiftSyntax and build a DSL for creating code templates and Macros. It was an interesting experience to say the least and glimpse into the possibilities of these tools and their limitations. https://t.co/eTdUoU48sd

Current AI dev stack: • Claude Code: Project-level edits • Cursor: Focused iterations • Clear constraints: AI works better in boxes In the end I'm still needing to plan, review, and edit my code afterwards but the tools help a lot . What's your AI toolchain looking like?

So excited to be able to offer the beginner workshop at this price! I hope a lot of people curious about Swift on the server will try it out!
The conference has always been about bringing the community together and growing Swift on the server. So to help, we're dropping the price of the beginner workshop to just £25! Tickets -

By popular demand, I updated https://t.co/pb1UMcV8mC to support Apple's Human Interface Guidelines (HIG). https://t.co/QkmkEJvxNg Let me know how that works for you! I'm interested to hear what differences you see in, e.g. SwiftUI code generation when the HIG is in context.

Stop asking AI to build your entire app. Start asking it to solve specific, well-defined problems within your existing architecture.

My SyntaxKit project succeeded because I gave AI clear examples: desired code, SwiftSyntax AST, target API. Constrained problems = better results.

The solution isn't better prompts. It's understanding where AI shines (boilerplate, iteration) vs where it fails (cutting-edge APIs, nuanced architecture). https://t.co/N6GdaE1i4S
