TIL that there is no “native” way to have duration time inputs in swiftui.

this led me to implement my own. i wanted stay away from the scroll-type inputs you see in apps like timer, because they seem awfully inefficient and demand A LOT of space.

i think it came out nice. wdyt?

a feature more ui frameworks should have is automatic text inflection.

in swiftui, you don't have to worry about handling plural/singular form changes.

if you do `^[\(count)] exercises](inflect: true)` swiftui will handle that for you!

it's small, but i love that in swift you are not forced to explicitly define every single argument in a closure expression.

it conveniently lets you access all the parameters with the $0, $1, $n syntax.

do you think the workout timer text should be inlined or stacked?

i find working with swiftui interesting...

it's very different than rn, flutter, or web development in the sense that it's very opinionated.

there's this invisible hand guiding you to create apps according to apple's HiG.

Building products solo with generative AI is game changing.

Just a few prompts can give you a tailored campaign image for your product.

This one goes on my newsletter sign up page to create some visual connection. You can check it out @ plates.framer.website

I’m building an iOS workout tracker for lifters that feels native and charges once (no monthly).

Beautiful design, no subscriptions, and PR tracking that actually helps you progress.
