I love my family, building things, good developer experiences, pizza, and fishing in videos games ❤️

I have been using tools like breakpoints, 'Jump to Definition', and 'Find Call Hierarchy' to debug and get to learn new project. What more can you add to the list? #iosdev #xcode #swift #ios #debugging

Three more tickets until beta testing!

Working on a new section today. See the new tab. #indiedev #buildinpublic #iosdev #footballmanager

Just checked on RevenueCat stats for my weather app. Good to know there are 12 active users on it. Thanks.

I want to give writing weekly articles a shot. I was experimenting with a third-party UI testing framework sometime ago and I want to write about it in detail. Should I go for Medium or a personal website?

I'll miss the total solar eclipse in April by just a few kilometers, and I can't get any closer because of a massive lake. 'Sun' of a bitch.

I had an error where the search bar in the nav bar would disappear after canceling or finishing a search. All I had to do was add navigationItem.hidesSearchBarWhenScrolling = false, and I have never encountered the same problem again.

Visited the PSG store that just opened in Toronto two weeks ago.

Really low hanging clouds from earlier today. I don’t think I have ever seen this since I moved here.

I tried using switch as an expression and it worked. So it’s a new feature in Swift 5.9

What advice do you have regarding effectively and quickly expanding my knowledge about architectural patterns, besides writing about the architecture and doing comparative case studies? In addition to MVVM, Coordinator, MVVM-C, and Clean Architecture, what other patterns are worth learning?

Low clouds over the building create a really stunning view.

Do you like to order frameworks in alphabetical order??
