Unpopular opinion 👀:
Code quality matters less than solving the right problem. ⚡️

I’ve seen beautiful MVVM architectures for apps nobody wanted. 📱❌

And messy spaghetti code that made millions. 🍝💰

Solve real problems first. Refactor later. 🔧

SwiftUI Tip: 💡

Enhance your price slider with a background histogram chart using SwiftUI's Path API for product distribution insights. Connect data points into a smooth curve, fill with gradient helps users see where deals cluster. Boosts UX without complex libs, perfect for shopping modals.

Unpopular opinion 👀:

Most iOS developers still don’t need to learn SwiftUI.
If you're maintaining a 5 year old app with millions of users, UIKit mastery > SwiftUI experiments. Stability matters. 🚦

SwiftUI vs UIKit Debate 🥊

Honestly, this topic has followed me everywhere. I started out building apps with UIKit like many others, struggling with xibs and storyboards 😄.

I loved freelancing as an iOS developer the freedom, the autonomy, the global clients. But over time, it became frustrating platforms like Upwork turned into a race to the bottom, clients pushed rates...

I spent years freelancing... and honestly? I loved it. 💙

The freedom to choose projects, work on my own terms, build something meaningful. It fed my entrepreneurial spirit in ways a regular job never could.

But somewhere along the way, everything changed.

Day 10 Building Nativa - The Bootstrap Strategy 🚀

Here's the truth most won't tell you building an app that actually scales costs money 💰. Time is the biggest cost every hour I pour into this without immediate return is time I'm not spending on something that brings income home.

One day I was channel surfing on YouTube and found a video by Mario Armenta telling how he created a SAAS in record time: he went to Code Canyon, bought a template, made small modifications and published it 🚀

Since AI came onto the scene, I didn't doubt for a second to adapt it to my workflow 🔄 With each tool I have a different flow, I've used almost all of them I can say. What I liked using it for most was creating UI 🎨

I've spent the last few weeks, in addition to giving all my time and energy to my daughter and family, also building the base project of AS. Materializing in code all the ideas and concepts I've been preparing for months. Iterating on what fits better and what doesn't fit with the product.

Day 5 Building Alison Studio & True Native 🚀
Time to build a dataset for training True Native! First, it'll faithfully render SwiftUI views from vibe coding outputs. Second, I've set up the base pipelines for conversions to other techs in the future.
