Wasting a lot of time to try to modify background of a tab bar in SwiftUI with iOS 26 and Xcode 26.0.1without success and supposing an issue in the Apple API, I try with GenAI tools, here with GitHub Copilot and several LLM: GPT-5 mini, Gemini 2.5 Pro and Claude Sonnet 4.5.
They do not know iOS 26 exist. It was launched in September 15th with several betas earlier. We are October, 24th.
Do not trust GenAI nor LLM. And RTFM.

My @SwiftLeeds talk is now live! I tried to make a very entertaining presentation, focus almost entirely on the ecosystem of Apple apps (rather than #swiftui or any iOS framework in particular), and remind everyone that when you rely on third-party APIs, your work is as ephemeral as their business model.
If you have ever been curious how hard it is to make a postcard-sending application like #wishyouwerehere (or why I love Keynote), then this talk is for you!

Atlas vs Dia is going to be an interesting battle between AppKit and SwiftUI
#SwiftLang #AppKit #SwiftUI #Technology #ArtificialIntelligence
Starting in under 1 hour!!! SwiftData live 3 hour workshop!!
You will learn about SwiftData architecture, relationships, testing and even CloudKit integration. I will show you the built-in SwiftData architecture, which allows you to separate your domain/business logic from views and easily make it testable.

Seeing how much #SwiftUI differs on every iOS version and all the workarounds I am using it would be nice to have some public tracking of known SwiftUI bugs where people could up vote them, share fixes/workarounds etc..
Could be nice project if I had extra 100 hours each month 😅
Basically something like the official Feedback but with the ability to see what other devs are having problems with and what are the solutions.
Every time I set dow to flesh this out, I realize there is a better way to go about it 😅 Tomorrow, let's take a look at tracking friendly sharing and using that to allow or deny invitations automatically. See you then!

I'm making a seasonal anime guide app, in the open for all to experience and learn from.
Another short stream today as I’m starting late, but let's flesh out the models for invite spam!

If you want to add video splash screens and configurable video players to your #SwiftUI app, VideoKit is a multi-platform, open-source SDK that makes this easy. The latest version makes it even easier to use the library, and simplifies the demo.

Woohoo! App Store approved!
After a few months of my husband and I working on this in our free time between our travels, it’s finally available. 🎉
So happy to have this release out there so we can start working on new features.

Is there really not one package for #SwiftUI that does the Ken Burns effect on images?
Rob is a geography teacher who made an app in Bitrig to support students with special educational needs. Today it is live on the App Store. From Rob,
"I have no coding or developer experience, just an idea and yet here we are.
Thanks Bitrig! Onto the next idea!"
Congrats, Rob! #BuildInPublic #Bitrig #Swift #SwiftUI
