I found some errors in the new Spain band plan, but I have a fix and plan to submit it today with a few other bits and bobs. Behind the scenes, I decided to consolidate all of my UI variables (padding, corner radii, capacities, etc.) into a single file with lots of enums. #QRV #amateurradio #iOSDev
Does anyone know if the using external display is somehow model-specific on the iPhone? On iPad (M1+) and any iPhone simulator it works just fine - I can have a second windowExternalDisplayNonInteractive scene, but on any physical iPhone I have, iOS never offers the second scene 🤔?

Another thing that tripped me up was adding a localized string key as a computed property in a main target extension on a model from a package.
Apparently it will then look for a string catalog in the module bundle instead of the main bundle.
#swift #iosdev
Getting closer now though to covering all the edge cases! This was a doozy. A string key with a variable where the variable also needs to be translated AND styled separately.
Turns out, you can interpolate AttributedString into LocalizedStringKey 🤩

If you want to get rid of the Liquid Glass sidebar window design, apply .containerBackground(.white, for: .navigation) to its content.

Idk why I didn’t anticipate localization would come with a whole lot of edge case handling 🙃
Thank goodness for the Swift community sharing so much knowledge. If I had a penny for every time a @natpanferova.bsky.social article saved my ass I’d be a rich man!

Most SwiftUI lists stop at search and sort. This one does not.
In this video, I build a dynamic list with a real index scrubber like the Contacts app. Practical, reusable, and production ready. #Swift #SwiftUI #iOSDev

A lot of SwiftUI apps look stunning but fall apart when Low Power Mode is on.
iOS throttles CPU/GPU in that mode. If your animations keep running full speed, users feel it.
The fix is straightforward.

Just submitted a new app to the App Store 🚀
Last time, it took 5 rejections and a full month to finally get approved 😅
Let's see how this one goes 🤞

My son and I just realized, that many people has started downloading our maze app, Miniotaur, the last 2 days 😅 Since launch, not many people had downloaded it, but maybe getting featured in "New games we love" in the App Store does something 🥰

Any #SwiftUI expert out there who could help me get images in a TabView to work? No matter what I do, the image takes almost the entire width and height.

Am I the only one for whom copy/paste with keyboard shortcuts in the hex color text field in Icon Composer doesn’t work? It’s really frustrating.

A drawing showing two scenes: Title: iOS Auto Layout First drawing: Content Hugging Shows a person who holds a box together. The person says: "I'm not gonna let you grow" Second drawing: Content Compression Resistance Shows a person inside a box, keeping it from being shrinked. The person says: "I'm not gonna let you shrink me"
It's been a while since I last used this API, but I immediately remembered this drawing pinned to our office door.
Turns out it was a great mnemonic after all!
