Timescape is a big picture calendar for big picture thinking.

It shows your entire year: 52 weeks in a grid, no gaps.

It's great for thinking seriously about your time; I use it multiple times a day. Go check it out! 😄

I accidentally built some kind of geography roulette (all i did was change the coordinate system, no logic to move the camera at all)

Just submitted an issue to the #swiftlang repo. Am I a real programmer now?

Timescape has been out for a week, and it's time for version 1.1!

- Non-all-day events have a new style, which is larger and easier to see
- Settings now contains an option to override the system color scheme

Just submitted a talk for #SwiftLeeds this year 👀👀👀

I haven't done any public speaking since I was in school, and I thought I would never have to again. I was right, I don't have to - but turns out I want to anyway.

A testament to the community all the folks at SwiftLeeds have built!

Things you shouldn't do: rebuild the #SwiftUI sidebar view from scratch so that you can use your own slightly different label style.

(Look at at the trailing padding on the selected label! Totally worth it.)

Live now in the latest update 😅

Spending a chill Sunday tidying up my app store screenshots!

I don't have any method really - switching up the format and the color scheme seem like good things to do?

Hey 👋 A short #introduction: I'm Matt, I make iOS apps and like to post about my progress. Give me an experimental follow if that's your jam :)

My latest app is the place where you write down your ideas. There's a map view! I like map views 👀 apps.apple.com/us/app/thoug...
