Today I attended Apple’s developer meetup in Madrid for the #WWDC25 highlights. We covered Machine Learning, Apple Intelligence, Foundation Models, visionOS 26, new App Store publishing tools, and the stunning new Liquid Glass design. A privilege to be part of it!

Swift Playground on iPad is my favorite way to code. Sure, it’s still missing some features and iCloud can be a pain, but it’s still an awesome setup for making iOS apps. 🛝 ♥️

Just got my hands on “Make Something Wonderful: Steve Jobs in his own words” by the Steve Jobs Archive and LoveFrom!
Super happy to have a physical copy, even though you can read it online or download it for free on Apple Books.

Apple has officially confirmed that third-party feed subscriptions have been removed in Swift Playground 4.6. To adapt to this change, I’ve redesigned my Playgrounds page! Save them in the iCloud folder. 😉

Matt Patenaude (manager for the Swift Playground app at Apple) casually mentioned that the app has one fewer letter in its name.
Remember: from now on it’s Swift Playground, not Playgrounds anymore. ✨

Being a developer who loves #Swift, I decided to dive into #Android dev by translating a Swift package to #Kotlin.
I learned the differences between Swift and Kotlin, set up a module from scratch, and ran unit tests in #AndroidStudio. Exploring Kotlin was rewarding.
