Oh my, keyboard follows the mouse cursor as well? And copy/paste? I’m SO HAPPY I’m returning to Macs. Too damn fun.

I suppose it's worth noting that I enabled my ChatGPT account in Xcode? Maybe the AI integration is causing the app to crap all over my good mood? Hard to say. I have...complex thoughts about AI, but I have a hard time blaming it for what I've experienced in Xcode 26 so far.

I'll blame my previous "pfft" playgrounds attitude on one dumb thing: I didn't realize they run previews. Not as pretty as XCode editor previews, but whatever, they work. All this time I figured they were only really good for non-UI code. Duh.

Okay, so my status for the day: Got a Habit Tracker app that lists Activities and offers a form to enter new Activities. I'm semi-stuck on dismissing the form after save (dismiss() won't work). That's as far as I've gotten. No count button, no saving data, etc. Let's see if tomorrow's a better day.

This course is straight-up too damn much to juggle with home obligations, a full time job, etc. I'll keep going, but I'm losing steam very quickly. It's gotten to the point of no longer being fun, and that's not a good thing. Nobody asked me to do this. I'm trying to stay excited, but...

(...cont) Provide consistent back-nav and who knows how many Android users would consider iOS. Lots, I would guess. So far it's driven me just a WEEEEEEE bit crazy.

Seriously, this is a UX hole that needs to be plugged, stat.

Otherwise, iOS os gorgeous and works like a charm.

(...cont) I recall years ago how Android users would poo poo iPhones because "there's no BACK button". There isn't really a back button on Android by default anymore either, but swipe from the right = back nav. Does iOS have that? Hell no. Why? Who knows? (cont...)
