Check out my BlueSky receipt at bskypt.vercel.app/

This is a very cute project!

I think there’s gotta be something up with those Likes Earned / Post Reposts calculations tho, no way those can be right 😅

Ah yeah, most vanity labelers like that (as opposed to moderation labelers) don’t automatically label your account, so subscribing to them just allows you to see the labels on other content.

You’ll see any labels they’ve placed on your account from your profile - you can see I have 3 currently:
A screenshot of my profile on Bsky. Underlined in red is the notice “3 labels have been placed on this account”. Also underlined in red are 3 labels on my pinned post: 1 label for my timezone and two labels from the TTRPG labeler saying “Monk” and “Tengu”.

Kinda glad I made the effort to take some screenshots along the way of doing #100DaysOfSwiftUI - it's fun to see all the apps we worked on (well, most of them) laid out at the end.

Will definitely come back to these when I need to remember how I did something in SwiftUI 😄

🎉 Just finished Day 99 of the #100DaysOfSwiftUI challenge. Went down an interesting rabbit hole investigating color sets and .tint for this last one... so enjoy some violently pink accent colors for the last project here 🤣

a screenshot of the iOS simulator running SnowSeeker on an iPad air. It's got a small list of Ski Resorts in the Sidebar on the left of the screen. In the main content window it's showing details of an American Ski resort featuring a large photo, details on size, price, elevation, and snow pack, and a long description from Wikipedia.

🎉 Just finished Day 98 of the #100DaysOfSwiftUI challenge. Almost done with SnowSeeker, just adding the icons for the facilities and the Favorites button. Might have to clean those up a bit in the wrap up if there's time.

a screenshot of the iOS simulator running Snowseeker app, showing a detail screen of Ski resort information. It shows a large image at the top, a header with various resort facts, a long description from wikipedia, and finally a "Facilities" section at the bottom featuring some vague information icons and an "Add to Favorites" button.

🎉 Just finished Day 96 of the #100DaysOfSwiftUI challenge. OMG coulda used ViewThatFits earlier! Need to look up a lot of layout stuff after this - moderately complex layouts that still look good in landscape are still challenging.

🎉 Just finished Day 95 of the #100DaysOfSwiftUI challenge. I love dice so much, so a dice rolling app was a fun one to work on. It has also shown me I had apparently forgot everything I learned about SwiftUI grid layouts 😅

a screenshot of the iOS simulator running my dice rolling app. It features a large cyan D20 at the top of the screen with “Total: 62” inside it. Below that are a list of the dice that were rolled (1D4, 1D6, 1D8, 1D10, 1D12, 1D20, and 1D100), and a large indigo “Roll Dice” button at the very bottom.

I’m so proud of them they did it!

🎉 Just finished Day 94 of the #100DaysOfSwiftUI challenge. This was an interesting one, using SwiftUI's GeometryReader to change the color, opacity, and size of a view depending on its position onscreen. Pretty while scrolling!

A screenshot of the iOS simulator running a simple app. A list of rainbow-colored numbered rectangles (from 1-15) fills the screen from top to bottom. They've been manipulated to form a helix shape, with the rectangles at the top being smaller and more transparent and gradually getting larger and more opaque toward the bottom.

Also it’s very important everyone knows that sometimes birds land on the sheep that are wandering around the glade and then the sheep wear them around like little hats.

Peak gaming right here.

I’m so impressed with the building tools in the Tiny Glade demo, construction is so easy and intuitive. What a beautiful pile of digital legos to play with!

TINY GLADE DEMO IS OUT!

I have been waiting for this little sandbox builder for LITERAL YEARS now and it’s out!!

You can build castles and taverns and fill the glade with little sheeps and PET THE SHEEP. I am so excited

🎉 Just finished Day 92 of the #100DaysOfSwiftUI challenge. SwiftUI's custom alignment guides are VERY COOL. There is nothing that drives me crazy faster than trying to get UI elements to align, these might save my life someday 😅

Everytime I forget how to style something in a List or Form view in #SwiftUI I end up referring back to this magnificent blog post, it has such good examples.

🎉 Just finished Day 91 of the #100DaysOfSwiftUI challenge. Didn't get around to adding a no-timer mode, but that's the Flashzilla app done 👍

www.hackingwithswift.com/100/swiftui/91 (via @twostraws.bsky.social)
a screenshot of the flashzilla app in the iOS simulator. A timer at the top says “Time is 47”. There’s the green ghost of a flash card getting flung of screen to the right, and the card in the center reads “What is the answer to life, the universe, and everything?”.

🎉 Just finished Day 90 of the #100DaysOfSwiftUI challenge. Adding the screen for adding/removing flash cards today. Also appreciate the section on fixing accessibility bugs, such a good topic to have repeated.

omg, not just a Windows Start menu that doesn’t suck, but a beautiful one. Way to go Stardock!

Amazing how much better something can look when it’s not packed full of shitty ads

🎉 Just finished Day 89 of the #100DaysOfSwiftUI challenge. Adding the timer for the flash card app today and I hope so badly that the wrap-up challenge is to make a “No Big Deal” mode where the timer doesn’t matter, I hate being timed 😰

a screenshot of the iOS simulator running the “Flashzilla” app. It features a stack of flash cards in the center of the screen, with the top card showing the text “What did the Hobbit have in its pocketses?” A timer at the top of the screen reads “Time is 94”.
