Magizh is here. ✨

Inspired by Kurt Vonnegut’s “If this isn't nice, what is?"

A quiet space to notice life’s happy moments. Capture joy, reflect gently, and keep it all close.

iOS vs. macOS UserDefaults Tip:

iOS Simulator: Deleting the app also deletes its UserDefaults.

macOS (e.g., Status Bar Apps): To delete UserDefaults, run this in Terminal: defaults delete your.app.bundle.id

As a developer in 2024, the hardest decision isn’t what to build but which AI tool to use!

AlexSidebar, Windsurf, GitHub Copilot, Cursor… the options are endless!

On the bright side, using AlexSidebar and referring to the Observation documentation, it correctly suggested the @Observable macro! This kind of contextual awareness is 🔥

Adding to this—GitHub Copilot in Xcode also hasn’t caught up! It still suggests @ObservedObject instead of the new @Observable macro

Xcode Predictive Completion is cool, but it’s still lagging behind! It suggests @ObservedObject instead of the new @Observable macro.

That said, I ran into a few issues:
• Scrolling slows down as the conversation gets longer. So I close and reopen again and start a new conversation.
• The AlexSidebar window sometimes disappears when applying changes.
• Even after creating a new file, it would still show and update the old one.

It looks promising so far. Here’s what I liked:
• Applying changes is straightforward, and only the relevant updates are made.
• The error-fixing display is quite helpful.
• It can generate code for the latest APIs by referencing Apple documentation.
