Hey everyone 👋 I'm excited to finally share what I've been working on since WWDC!

It’s an idea I've had for years but could only now realize with #AlarmKit in #iOS26 🤓

It's almost ready for #beta testing!

✨ Over 8000 app developers now use Helm for App Store Connect to ship their app updates! That's a pretty impressive number after a year, I'd say 😄

Haven't tried it yet?

Screenshot, macOS

A small app called Folder Icon Generator, it shows a preview of a normal macOS folder with a custom icon in the style of system folders like Downloads or Desktop. The icon is the Tapback icon for HA HA.

Below that, a text field labeled Symbol Name with a value of "laugh".

Below that, a link to an article about changing folder icons and a by-line.

Hell froze over, I made a macOS app! github.com/robb/FolderI... Use it to generate custom folder icons that match the ones found on macOS Sequoia.

I've cooked up something for @kilowattcharging.com that i think will be useful for more #ios devs. Just released a Fastlane plugin that will allow you to translate your Localizable.xcstrings using the great DeepL translation service. Just used it to localize my own app!

Should you use network connectivity checks in Swift? – Donny Wals A lot of modern apps have a networking component to them. This could be because your app relies on a server entirely for all data, or you’re just sending a couple of requests as a back up or to kick…

🚨 new post!

Have you ever used NWPathMonitor to check for network connectivity before making a request in your app?

Where I see Apple’s biggest mistake in their current line of thinking is that while I pay Apple huge sums of money each month, they don’t view me as a customer to be served. They don’t seem to see the benefit of making my experience and offerings better and better. They aren’t trying to win me over by being excellent; they are assuming my loyalty through strong-arm tactics and intransigence.
