Most heatmaps use rectangular grids, but with Swift Charts we can use PointPlots to arrange cells with alternative shapes. In my new post, we explore hexagonal cells for spatial data.

A quick photo of @potch.app on a demo iPhone 18... wait… though I think I'll pass on actually installing it, haha 😅.
Still, I can't wait to see the iPhone Duo. Designing an interface that folds just right is going to be a fun challenge.

This #Xcode 16 feature is probably one of my favorite ones: pasting content directly into a new file without creating it first. Just copy the content, select the preferred directory, and paste it from the clipboard. That's it.

Sometimes we want a gradient to span the whole plot rather than restart within each mark. In Swift Charts, alignsMarkStylesWithPlotArea(true) gives marks a shared gradient alignment.

Learn more in our book, Swift Charts Beyond the Basics:
books.nilcoalescing.com/swift-charts...

#iOSDev #SwiftUI
Swift code applies a vertical indigo-to-pink-to-orange gradient to a BarPlot, followed by alignsMarkStylesWithPlotArea(true). Two stacked charts show identical bars of varying heights. In “Mark-aligned gradient,” every bar contains the full gradient. In “Plot-aligned gradient,” the gradient spans the plot, so shorter bars show only its lower colors and equal vertical positions share the same color.

Stretchy headers are a common pattern in iOS apps where the image expands as the user pulls down. We can create this effect in SwiftUI using the visualEffect() modifier without changing the image frame. I've just published a post about it: nilcoalescing.com/blog/Stretch...
