Climate Crisis by Daniel Coull and Eino Korkala has one of the most creative and scary use of variable fonts I've ever seen.

Improved the widget tonight by enabling task completion from the widget directly. Widgets has limited animation capabilities, but manage to introduce a 3s delay as a grace periode, allowing the user to undo any accidental clicks.

This wraps up my goal for the release! 🚀

Today’s learning has been both frustrating but rewarding. I delved deeper into AppIntent and its integration with Shortcuts, enabling Spotlight to recognise alternative phrasings of my AppIntent. The results are subtle yet quite effective! 👏

Once the widget was setup, it was surprisingly easy to add a lock screen widget... Introducing: the 'The ‘Oh right!’ Button" 😄

It took me longer than I’d like to admit, but progress is progress— I added AppIntents and got the list sorting working! 🤩

I’ve been working on and off on the widget for a good while now. At the moment, it’s just a static list. I will look into AppIntent soon so I can start incorporating some interaction into the widget. 🔥

...also some more metal play tonight, this time making everything glitch based on a timer, applied on a view using the Canvas API...

Trying out some interaction ideas in Figma tonight.✨

Gave Metal another go today, got some basics of MSL down, learned about changing colour and also managed to move some pixel around using some simple sinus curve...🤟
It's good fun, but way more math than I anticipated. 😄

As part of my own remember-to-have-fun initiative, I had a play with Metal today. It’s ChatGPT most of the way, but I’m keen to understand the code better over time. The potential is insane! 🤯

Coding can be quite brutal, but can also be quite rewarding when you get to work on small details you care about. 😄

For the past 2 days, I’ve been trapped in the depths of Spotlight hell, but I’ve emerged victorious. The actual indexing to Spotlight was straightforward—the real nightmare was getting the deeplink and making use of it. But I’ve managed to get it working!
#swiftUI #beginner #code #keeplearning

My quest to keep learning brought some spotlight to Spotlight today! The experience is far from perfect, but I got the basics to work! Tasks are now visible in Spotlight, and reindexing happens upon task creation, updates, and deletion…🍻

I’ve been deep in the rabbit hole, learning about UI testing; it honestly feels quite magical to write an automated test and watch a robot run through all the buttons and interactions in one fell swoop! 🥹✨

Happy to announce that my first-ever app is now available on the App Store!
apps.apple.com/us/app/todo-...
It's a humble to do app focused on keeping things simple.
Big thanks to #100DaysOfSwiftUI and
@twostraws.bsky.social, for getting me started on this coding journey!

Tried running my app in a Vision Pro simulator!

Xcode did give me a bunch of strange error at the beginning, but after conditionally disabling a few lines of sensoryFeedback, it worked! So weird and cool at the same time!

Chipping away bugs for the todo app can at times feel quite intense, here's a subtle reminder to myself that learning should be fun, and small breaks is needed.

Never tried using the gyro before, tonight is the night.
