America is beautiful, contradictory, unfinished. I am proud of our country even as we constantly strive to make it better, to protect and deepen our democracy, to fulfill its promise for each and every person who calls it home.
Happy Independence Day. No Kings in America.

I wanted to show off something I'm proud of here. In the next update, I have a brand new shot chart feature.
When you add attempts, I use some good ol' math to ✨ automatically✨track shot types as either a 3 pointer, lay up, mid range shot, etc.

Here's a preview of my first attempt at making a Raycast Command... the very verbose "Vertical Video Clip From Youtube URL In Clipboard". 😅
I like sharing YouTube video clips on my Instagram stories, and I think they look nicer when formatted for a vertical screen

Not sure when to use layoutPriority? Here’s an example: In a space-limited HStack with two Text, applying minimumScaleFactor to the second text won’t work as expected—Text 1 will simply be truncated. Giving Text 1 higher priority forces the second text to scale down.

This is your yearly spring cleaning reminder to head on over to Xcode → Settings → Components and remove all of those OS runtimes that you're no longer using!
I just freed ~100GB from my machine by cleaning these up 🧹

Did you know?
You can use this command to clean up the iOS status bar before taking screenshots:
xcrun simctl status_bar booted override --time 09:41 --batteryState charged --batteryLevel 100 --cellularBars 4
Once done, reset like this:
xcrun simctl status_bar booted clear

Have you learned about The Swift 6 Synchronization Framework?
It introduces some new low-level primitives, Mutex and Atomics. I tested their performance against Actors and the classic OSLock, when building a simple key-value cache.
