Apple has released FastVLM, an efficient Vision Language Model (VLM) designed for rapid high-resolution image processing. It can run directly on iPhones using MLX. This is highly beneficial for apps requiring real-time performance on the device.

Documenting your code becomes more important in the era of modularized apps. Whenever different parts of your app live in multiple Swift Packages, it becomes crucial to provide proper documentation. Apple provides us with the documentation compiler called DocC.

Hey everyone, would you do me a favor?
Can you help me spread the word about Step Into Vision? A few hundred visionOS developers find it super useful but I haven't broken out into the rest of the Apple Dev world.
Can you help put a spotlight on this project?

You know how I love to celebrate milestones. Today is a big one. I just published my 200th post on Step Into Vision 🎉
My goal is to create the best resource for #visionOS developers. I have a lot of work to do, but I'm well on my way!

What's new in Swift 6.1? Trailing commas in lists, metatype key paths, Swift Testing scopes, and more! Apologies for being late to write this up, but as usual I've given it the full treatment, including an interactive Xcode Playground: www.hackingwithswift.com/articles/276...

Hi everyone! 👋🏻
Our client had cutbacks and I was one of the casualties. So, I'm back on the job market, looking for a remote iOS developer position.
Let me know if you or someone you know might have something. 😊

Revisit Lab 012
I combined some gestures, a hand anchor, and an entity with an occlusion material. This lab don't aim to teach anything, It was just fun to build and play with.
