Yesterday my son (also) spotted the corner wall glitch 😬 It was an issue with .overlay in SwiftUI, had to fix it today 😅 Walls now render correctly on top of the maze view. Beta sign-ups open in the coming days miniotaur.app #iOSDev #IndieDev #Shipaton #ParentDev

After a few experiments with the maze data model, I wired it up to the UI — and boom: our first draft of drawing paths! 🤩 Watching my son hold the app for the first time and whisper “whoa” was everything ❤️ #shipaton #BuildInPublic #IndieDev #iOSDev #ParentDev

First pixels! Not pretty 😬 but we had a digital version of my son’s hand drawn UI with tools and dots ✍ That felt like magic to him 🪄 #shipaton #BuildInPublic #IndieDev #iOSDev #ParentDev

It started with a grid notebook I got from @appfigures.com at @deepdishswift.com last year. My son filled it with mazes — I tried them... and we thought: what if we built an app to create and share mazes? That’s our project for @revenuecat.com #shipaton 😻 #BuildInPublic #IndieDev #iOSDev #ParentDev

My son and I are working together this year on an app for @revenuecat.com’s #shipaton 😻 It’s based on something he’s spent many hours on during car rides over the past year 🚗 #BuildInPublic #IndieDev #iOSDev #ParentDev
