Got the same questions about why I was building a BlueSky stats app for Apple TV. I want to learn the APIs and it’s fun wasn’t convincing 😂.

It’s live!!! Made it through Apple AppReview on the first try.

Check out my Apple TV Bluesky stats app. Would love feedback.

@Stats is now in review with Apple’s #AppReview team. 🤞

The story of my Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays for the past 2 decades have included eagerly awaiting the Apple #AppReview team’s verdict on my latest project.

This Thanksgiving was no different.

Here’s to hoping I got all the Apple TV app requirements right and make it through review! 🤞

@gvillasboas.bsky.social @lindadong.bsky.social living my Apple Vision Pro. Any suggestions on why the behavior is different with each Xcode build?

Anyone found a good solution to prevent the build from changing each time? If I build & run the app in the simulator, stop it, build and run again, with no code changes I get different behavior.

Today’s build in public starting point: First run at porting my Apple TV Bluesky stats app to Apple Vision Pro…definitely have work to do. #buildinpublic

Not yet, should probably get on that.

ChatGPT 4o, copilot, and xcode autocomplete. 4o was the best so far. It’s a swift app. I find copilot is not great at swift and Xcode is like the kid on class always raising their hand but gives the wrong answer.

Just this little Apple TV Bluesky stats app (if Apple approves it’s release)

PDS is also a personal data server, a way of hosting your own Bluesky data.

I’ve seen similar issues where a PDS hosted account that does not have all the fields filled out won’t show in search. Looks like that’s not your case though.

Was your old account attached to a PDS?

First build off to Apple for #AppReview.

@Stats turns your Apple TV into an always-on display to monitor your favorite BlueSky account stats!

Love coding, love my Apple TV, loving BlueSky. Perfect match for a 4 day weekend. Thankful for the time to tinker on personal projects!

#WeekendBuilder #BuildInPublic Definitely enjoying it!

Been trying out different code gen tools, looks like I’ll still have a job for a while yet. They make me faster and I am still relying on experience to solve problems.

Anyone added Apple Vision Pro support for an Apple TV app? Any tips or pitfalls?

Loving the 🦋 public api! Lots of fun to build a small app around.

Looks sweet. Got a url?

The truth. Trying to put AI code generators through their paces too. So far gpt4o is pretty good, Xcode auto complete…not so much

Working on a dash board app for Apple TV now. Great way to spend a 4 day weekend 😎

We love Xcode but can’t stand this “feature”. Gotta make sure to hit “change all” too or it will only change that one file.

It involves BlueSky and AppleTV…📺 stay tuned.

Seeing all the #buildinpublic devs on here inspired me. Got something fun in the works!

Spending my 4 day weekend the way coders do, coding 😎
