iOS #DevRel 🥑 @getstream_io. Mainly working with mobile📱 and web 🕸. Interested in the cloud ☁️, ML 🤖, and AR 🤳🏻. Love sports 🏀🏈🏂🏃🏼‍♂️🚴🏻‍♂️🧘🏼‍♂️. (he/him)
Yes, half the internet is down, which is problematic.
But all I'm worrying about TBH is that I might break my @duolingoverde.bsky.social streak...

Since I'm working more with #python lately, I wanted to have a clean linting/formatting setup.

Here's what I have in my settings.json in @vscode.dev / Cursor (big fan of ruff by Astral), anything I'm missing?

That first cup of coffee back home after a trip just hits different. ☕️

Finally, I no longer only have the case at home.

Curious how this'll hold up. The phone is indeed quite orange, but upon first impression, I really like it.

Looking forward to showing how to "Add video calling into an app in just 30 minutes" for the @revenuecat.com #shipaton2025 livestream.

We're using #SwiftUI and doing some nice Liquid Glass animations while we're doing it.

Join in just under 2h to take a look and follow-along!

I want to start a new weekly series here called #ToolTipTuesday. I've been doing that for a while on Instagram and TikTok, but wanted to move it here as well.

For the first post, I'm covering the great UX site lawsofux.com

Last night was really clear sky and I was able to snap this picture out of my window.

Not using a tripod, only with my phone. Which - I think - is just incredible.

Perfect way to start 2 weeks of PTO.
Kiddo at a sleepover and getting up early for a morning ride! 🚴

I really love Strava, but for this one, I need to call the design police! 👮

Just a reminder: this is how to properly set up mail and password input in #SwiftUI

(Am I missing something useful here?)

In today's edition of REALLY helpful AI code generation...

I asked to create mock data for a project I'm working on, and it came up with this brilliant comment instead of really creating 25 entries into the array.

Nice try!

It's subtle, but I really like the attention to detail here.

When I put in a meeting with the title "Coffee chat" Google Meet will automatically populate it with this beautiful illustration.

This is the kind of fun and playfulness that sets designs and UI apart.

I like the approach that @clerk.com is taking by adding a "Copy prompt" button to their Quickstart tutorials.

It's interesting to see how companies are adopting the increased usage of LLMs in coding to improve the DX for them, and not only developers.

Clever usage.

I think our photo looks way more cute!!!

But still looks lovely, have a wonderful time and enjoy it!

A lot of people are trying out vibe coding, but how much skill is really needed to get a fully working app? 🤔

We'll explore by building the same app on different levels to see the impact has - on the app that is built, but also on the code...🧑‍💻

To my iOS (animation) #SwiftUI friends:

I have a ScrollView that I want to animate to a position slowly (think of a gallery in an onboarding flow).

Changing the duration (or the animation type) in the withAnimation call doesn't do anything.

Is this not possible to change? 🤔
