If you haven’t already, check out my YouTube Channel Listing app. Free download from Gumroad stewartlynch.gumroad.com/l/obsjz The reviews have been overwhelming and some have even decided to pay for the app, which is more than appreciated.

Did you know that .onChange method in SwiftUI can also capture the old ore previous value? Just enclose the value in [] .onChange(of: someValue) { [someValue], newValue in print(someValue, newValue) }

If you have a real device with iOS 16 connected to Xcode, there is a new button int the preview that is “Preview on Device”. When this is checked, your phone turns into the preview window and you see live updates as you code. Discovered this thanks to a question from @kct3937

I am teaching an iOS Bootcamp for Apple next month to educators. We will be building 2 or 3 simple apps, but in the process introduce a lot of content with references to one of my videos for more info as new concepts are introduced. Would this make a good YouTube series?

Had fun today on this Canadian long weekend putting together a replacement for the TabBar in SwiftUI. Surprisingly easy. Link to GitHub repo is github.com/StewartLynch/C…

I am pretty stoked as I think I finally have a good understanding of SwiftUI GeometryReader and how it works with different coordinate spaces. It was one of those lightbulb situations that clicked with me. I am thinking of doing a video on the topic. Is there interest?

I highly recommend going though this article from apple and download the code developer.apple.com/documentation/… I have gone through every model, view and macro changing things to break the app. Now, I think I have a good handle on data flow in iOS 17

Have you upgraded to Sonoma and found that you can no longer run Xcode v14.x? Here is how you can get around that.

I am overwhelmed by the number of people who said that they wouldn’t mind hanging out with me if I went to WWDC. I have just decided to commit to another year of producing YouTube content with the goal of making the pilgrimage to Cupertino next year. ❤️❤️❤️

The thing about iOS dev is that you can be an absolute crap coder and still publish an app to the App Store. How do I know? I have 12 of them on the App Store. It has only been since I have been doing YouTube videos that my coding has improved. Still humbled by others though.
