IMPORTANT: You need to RSVP to the invite, otherwise your place will be reallocated. You're not going for sure until you see this screen.

Also: Once again, Apple is planning "even more developer activities" at their Cupertino developer center on Tuesday. Make sure you stick around for day 2!

I had a really nasty ankle injury in October last year, so I’m glad to be moving again. Now to get back into some kind of gym routine!

I've just cleared the WWDC Community repository ahead of ! If you know of a meet-up, event, or watch party taking place during WWDC week – either in Cupertino or elsewhere around the world – please open a PR with details. Thank you! 🙌 https://github.com/twostraws/wwdc

Today folks learn if they were lucky enough to get a golden ticket to attend the special event at Apple Park. If you won a spot: congratulations! But if not, there are lots of community events and meetups that will happen – it's fun to be in town anyway!

It’s 11:47am and I’ve already had enough of today. I’m going to have a nap, then make some tea, and start again in 90 minutes. Fingers crossed that works…

Watching my eldest still working so hard to explore every corner of Tears of the Kingdom tells me I’m doing parenting right. That and the awesome T-shirt 😅

@danedeasy Apparently Apple Watches are no longer cool with kids these days 😱 She asked for the G-Shock for her birthday, and was wearing the Apple Watch so she can listen to music without her phone.

Happy Easter to everyone if you celebrate it.

I'm having fun with animations today before coffee with friends. Day 32 reviewed and day 33 of is complete along with my daily dose of the dulcimer British tones of @twostraws. I do have a question.

How do you make the padding also "active" in a button not just the text so that anywhere within the text and padding will activate the button?

Perhaps this will become apparent in future lessons.

@hopeforall You need to use this code:

Button {
// action code
} label: {
Text(“Hello, world!”)
.padding()
}

Today we learn who won this year’s Swift Student Challenge!

If you won: congratulations! I look forward to meeting the distinguished winners in Cupertino 😎

But if you didn’t win, I hope you are still proud that you took an idea, made it real, and learned a lot along the way 🙌

is coming! June 10th-14th. I'll be flying out as usual – see you there? https://developer.apple.com/wwdc24/

And now we wait 🤞

Of course, even if I don't get a ticket everyone knows it's great fun just to be there 😎

I was supposed to go to a bachelorette party in Mexico this weekend but I got sick so I stayed home. My husband said he’s going to lock my laptop away to still force me to take a break. I thought it was a funny joke.

This morning when I woke up, he was in my home office with the door closed and has been in meetings since then. With my laptop 🤔

@holly How did I not know you had a dog?! 🤩

In November, I released Inferno: an open-source collection of Metal shaders for SwiftUI developers, making it easy to create gorgeous special effects in your iOS apps. https://github.com/twostraws/Inferno

In particular:

  • Write a small code sample demonstrating using one element.
  • Write just one test, proving that a given Ignite element configuration produces the correct HTML output.
  • Submit fixes for typos, unclear comments, and more.

It's all welcome! 🙌

If you're not sure about making a pull request, I'm happy to help! And once you've managed it once, I promise the next once is easier. There are lots of opportunities to get involved, so please do ✨

@tapforms It's Swift code that runs on your Mac when you build the site. It already has support for loops and conditions to generate HTML based on various conditions of your choosing, but you can of course extend that further.

@twostraws@mastodon.social avatar

@pixelpartner Oh snap! Yes, I see now that’s still on my todo list 🙃 That would be a welcome PR 🙂

@fbartho An environment() modifier would be epic and most appreciated – I'd love to see this implemented, and would really appreciate a PR from you for it! Gosh, if we could nail that, then we could perhaps use property wrappers to access things like site/content data, rather than relying on the publishing context being passed around.
