Polarized opinion: Dismissing AI as you would dismiss cryptos/bros is not a smart thing to do. Unlike cryptos, current AI tooling is already an integral part of some tools and workflows (including my own tools and workflows). It's there to stay and improve. Also, dismissing AI because you believe it's bad for authored content is very narrow-minded. #AI #tools

Did ya'll know that much of the original iPhone design came from Apples knock off of Konfabulator?

I made my first YouTube short, and I'd love to hear what you think! A #SwiftUI tip everyone needs to know: https://youtube.com/shorts/EDd6Hr_F99o

We explained that you could skip the credits by holding space. It was then rejected for something else and at that point we just gave up and never bothered to resubmit. Fin

Day 112. With accessibilityRepresentation(representation:), you can create a custom component and it can be perceived by assistive technologies as the view you pass as representation. No need to manually configure accessibility attributes.

It is one of the most interesting additions to SwiftUI to help you develop accessible UI components. If your custom component behaves similarly to a native one, this is the way to go.

While talking to developers we get a lot of questions on how to initialize a @StateObject with external values.

Today we update our docs by greatly expanding around all our data flow primitives with special attention to StateObject. You'll find better explanations on how to initialize StateObject with external data and few words around what to pay attention when doing so (https://developer.apple.com/documentation/swiftui/stateobject)

We hope this helps everyone get more clarity and understanding on how to work with SwiftUI.
