Day 91 #100DaysOfSwiftUI
✅ Some more GeometryReader action
Rows now fade up when they get to the top, get smaller, and the hue changes based on the vertical position.
Was very fun to work on (and visually pleasing 🤓)

Day 93 #100DaysOfSwiftUI
✅ GeometryReader time
🔑 takeaways:

Day 92 #100DaysOfSwiftUI
✅ Learned how SwiftUI layouts work
🔑 takeaways:
👉 There are layout-neutral views/modifiers that ask their children for their size
👉 .alignmentGuide()
👉 Create custom alignment guides as enums
I can already feel that we're approaching day 100 fast!
I just love simple but clever ideas like this.
Beautifully executed 👏 https://xcancel.com/graceongrid/status/1576348432926912513
Just discovered a great alternative to finsweet's attributes:

Some really great stuff there!

I need some help from a Webflow pro regarding the editor:
https://discourse.webflow.com/t/not-able-to-edit-image-in-editor/218504
Has anyone else experienced this and can help point me in the right direction?
Thanks 🙏

Day 91 #100DaysOfSwiftUI
✅ Added some additional features on my own
There were some slight improvements plus wrong-answered cards get added to the back of the queue. The last part is rather messy though, might have to revisit this part with a fresh mind…
From the @Codecademy data science path:
“In the end, your human oversight and critical consideration of the data will have the biggest impact on data quality.”
Really not a fan of the whole Figma/Adobe bashing, BUT…
Why is @Adobe charging me 12.– if I choose to cancel my monthly subscription? This doesn't make sense to me at all and is bad CX practice (ironically, they create products that are supposed to help you design great CX)…

That's great UX:
@pixelmator Photo allows you to set a reminder before you get charged after the free trial.
Kudos, that makes me want to support you even more 👏

Government websites are usually a hot mess.
One positive example though is https://www.ch.ch/en. It provides simple answers to frequently asked questions for Swiss citizens.
Great UX, available in 5(!) languages and built with modern technologies (spotted Nuxt 🤓).
Day 85 #100DaysOfSwiftUI
✅ Added some additional features on my own
Also, there was a rewrite of the save and load functionality.
The awesome thing is, by now I already have built a library of code snippets, so I used one from the BucketList project for this feature :)

Sunday funsies:
Made some of my @Spotify playlists public and designed dreamy artworks for them (inspo: @FonsMans).
Enjoy!!
Awesome reference app for anyone learning SwiftUI! https://xcancel.com/SwiftDev_UI/status/1573822304890527744
Lil reminder that disliking the things you've created in the past is a sign of growth.
Day 82 #100DaysOfSwiftUI
✅ Building the HotProspects project (I)
🔑 takeaways:
👉 Customizable view with enums
👉 Reminder: Mark ObservableObject classes as @ MainActor
👉 Dynamically filter data with computed property
I enjoy these kinds of days just building layouts.
Day 81 #100DaysOfSwiftUI
✅ Overview of the HotProspects project (III)
🔑 takeaways:
👉 .contextMenu modifier for secondary actions
👉 .swipeActions on list items for further actions
👉 Two types of notifications: Remote & local
Great UX is already built in!
Did you know that there is a more convenient way to add the frame modifier you need in #Xcode14?
Just type .frame + the abbreviations of the properties you need (e.g. w for width, wh for width and height, …) and let autocomplete do the work for you!
A number to keep in mind 👇 https://xcancel.com/yannicklu/status/1573303483457048577
.@thatsfinsweet has many great Webflow products that I love to use (available for free!).
But my absolute favorite is Attributes: Whenever I need something that's not possible in Webflow, chances are that there is an attribute that exactly solves my problem.
Feels like magic ✨

DALL-E 2 is great, but writing good prompts can feel like art as well.
I've discovered this awesome presentation which helped me learn a lot about writing prompts for various styles 👇
Day 80 #100DaysOfSwiftUI
✅ Overview of the HotProspects project (II)
🔑 takeaways:
👉 objectWillChange is for manually publishing changes from classes
👉 Use .result on a Task to simplify code (returns either return type or error)
👉 SwiftUI automatically interpolates images
iOS devs should really appreciate the fact that the new OS version is adopted so fast 🤯
Makes me excited to use the new SwiftUI features :) https://xcancel.com/ChristianSelig/status/1571573431010836483
Day 79 #100DaysOfSwiftUI
✅ Overview of the HotProspects project (I)
🔑 takeaways:
👉 @ EnvironmentObject makes data accessible to child views, use it with .environmentObject modifier
👉 TabView is a parent view for your whole app, it uses the .tabItem modifier
The new default SwiftUI view now features an icon.
Spotting this little change is a great reminder of how far I've already come on my #100DaysOfSwiftUI journey!
Uno #011
If you are a dev, you probably use the terminal pretty often. The best one in my opinion is Hyper by @vercel.
Built with HTML, CSS & JS and therefore easily extensible with plugins and customizable with gorgeous themes.
Here's mine, love the clean look:
