I just dropped the first version of the CrystalGrid app! I’ve been experimenting with the new Liquid Glass, and this app is a cool twist on Sudoku—it’s all about keeping things clean, easy to understand, and fun for puzzle enthusiasts of all skill levels.

SwiftUI doesn’t have “clear” Glass material variant available (only “regular” in the beta). Please file feedback as mentioned in this forum post, so we could have a chance to play with new material during the beta period.

Recently got caught up into testing of SCStream and other related types, e.g. SCDisplay, SCRunningApplication. Interestingly many of these types have unavailable initializer, so, there is no straight forward way to mock these types.

I skipped my regular stream today. However, I’m exploring methods to mock something that isn’t mockable through inheritance. Additionally, I’ve updated my blog, which was written using Ignite.🤞I hope, I’ll be able to write a quick article tomorrow with my findings.

That's so interesting how TDD very quickly brings surprises like "Oh, that's how it should be". AVFoundation and ScreenCaptureKit are very difficult to test, but it's worth it because it helps to shape the understanding of the domain in great detail.

No stream today. It’s getting pretty great outside, and I’m starting to think to change my scheduler to weekends morning or evening. Haven’t decided yet. I’ll keep you posted.
