Such an honor to give my first conference talk at @swiftconnection.bsky.social yesterday - an amazing conference in a beautiful city!

Thanks to the organizers and helpers who made this possible and to the #iOS community as a whole for being so supportive and welcoming ☺️

Me on stage presenting my talk. There is a banner saying “Swift Connection 25” in front.

A snippet of the conference schedule showing my talk right after the coffee break. The title is “SwiftUI Apps that Effortlessly Scale from your Smallest to your Biggest Screen”

Finally updated @TranslateKit.app to Liquid Glass. Thankfully didn't have to adjust much, it all worked thanks to #SwiftUI. I only changed the "Reload" button at the top: Because the status toolbar now has a glassy border, I had to set the button style to "plain" – that's all. ❤️🚀

Direct comparison:

TranslateKit: App Localization @translatekit.app · 9d

Better late than never: #TranslateKit is now fully compatible with #LiquidGlass! 💦🪟

Sorry for the delay, our app icon is finally out of jail. 💃

Here's a direct comparison – which one do you like better, old or new design?

Thanks, good luck for you too, then! What‘s your topic?

Yes it does. You just need to use Xcode 15+ and be using String Catalogs, which are perfectly backwards compatible to all iOS versions. Xcode converts String Catalogs to strings(dict) files during app compilation, String Catalogs are just a nicer packaging than strings(dict) files were.

I'm happy to announce that exactly 1 week from now, I'll be speaking at @swiftconnection.bsky.social in Paris about "Better Error Handling in Swift"! 🗣️

This is gonna be my first conference talk, and I'm nervous and excited at the same time. Still tweaking my slides... 😁

I just wanted to refactor context files to use Claude Code more efficiently (to ship MORE app updates for iOS 26). But I shipped LESS because I ended up leaning more & more into the context engineering system. 😅

Now back to my apps, hope it'll be worth it. The result: 👇

Fellow devs were impressed when I described how I use #ClaudeCode in my app work, so I've been busy preparing a new open-source project:

🎉 Introducing "ContextKit" 🎉 an easy-to-use platform-agnostic system to get production-ready code faster. 🚀

We've added watchOS 26 rollout statistics to the dashboard as well. Notice how the shape lags behind iOS updates, since people first update their phones and then their watches (and that takes a while) #ios26rollout

The first wave of iOS 26 installations is through and we're now at 10-20% adoption. Next, Apple usually begins sending notifications to customers in a few distinct phases over the next few weeks! #ios26rollout dashboard.telemetrydeck.com/notebooks/9E...

After working on @daylish.bsky.social all summer it feels incredible to see it featured on its launch day 🤩 I'm so grateful 🥹

Big thanks to the App Store team for the feature and to @yanlu.chat for designing the beautiful promo artwork 🙌

A screenshot showing Daylish featured in the App Store on its launch day with Yannick Lung’s beautiful promo artwork. The artwork shows a lamp, a calendar and an alarm clock together on a surface.
