Somewhere this weekend, an indie dev will open a project they haven’t touched in six months, fix one tiny thing, and accidentally spend four hours chasing the next idea.
We see you.
That “maybe this could be something” energy is why @swiftsonicconf.bsky.social exists.

Your iOS Simulator is a sneaky little time thief!
@rocketsim_app puts deep links, location testing, and network tools beside the Simulator and now lets AI agents inspect, navigate, and verify the app too.
I'm so glad to have them sponsoring Swiftsonic! 🚀

Your indie app is your garage band. 🎸
You write every part, carry the gear, and at the eleventh hour, you’re living on a prayer behind the keyboard.

That’s why we have Openers and Headliners. The day builds: fresh voices, deep experience, practical Swift and iOS stories.

5x5 – Hacking with Swift+
There are lots of word games, but very few original word games. Let’s build one today, with delightfully simple drag and drop mechanics plus locks in place to avoid annoying players as they progress.

I had only told a tiny number of people online at this point so these pre-order numbers were almost all me asking people to help out in person.

Recruit an extrovert!
Bluesky power user @mattheaney23.bsky.social came in clutch and took over after an hour when my voice started going out again.
And @joe.inkle.co can verify that I am indeed an introvert.
