Playing around with liquid glass on custom shapes. This is regular glass with a 10% pink tint.

You need a background for the glass effect to work.

The highlight effect seems to be using a Capsule shape and not the provided shape so it looks a bit weird.

As the designer/developer of the Old English Wordhord, I often ask myself "What would medieval England do?"

Stained liquid glass.

Oops, I forgot to include the image caption. If you look in the Old English Wordhord app all images should have links back to their original source as well.

If you’re looking for more strange animal illustrations it might be worth checking out medieval manuscripts.

I launched Wordhord v2.0 today and noticed this review while I was in App Store Connect.

If you want an app to cheer you up, check it out (it's free).

Learn an Old English word every day in an app with a unique medieval style.

Sometimes a silly idea pops into my head and I just have to build it.

Add a 👻 scare sheet into your app:

It’s a Transition animation. Not sure how you would do it in UIKit but here’s the SwiftUI code.

Look like it works!

Time to see if this SF Symbol trick will work...

Genmoji is the gift that keeps on giving.

You’re right, the first one was a roast turkey however the next one was this.

I keep trying these softball prompts but Genmoji continues to fail.

Swift concurrency error in XCode 16.2 beta 3. The onPreferenceChange closure is now Sendable which means (unless I'm missing something) we can no longer modify main actor properties.

I hope this closure can instead use @.MainActor because otherwise this is going to cause some big problems.
