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.

Working nicely today on TVTastic. Syncing channels + channel lists of a VU+ to a Sqlite works now. @pointfree.co SQLiteData + StructuredQueries makes this a lot easier and testable than plain CoreData!

4 Swift Evolution proposals changed status this week.

The tracker checks the official metadata daily and keeps a readable history, so you don't have to monitor every proposal manually.

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.

10 dakikalık TestFlight onay butonunu beklemekle Codemagic akışında otomasyon çalıştırmak arasındaki o farkı siz de hissediyorsanız, ekibinizin iOS derleme sürecinde manuel onay şartı arayıp aramadığını merak ediyorum. #iOSDev

SwiftFairy 2026.9.1 is out! 🧚 SDK and project lookups are more reliable, and the complexity limits are much higher, so those huge views we all have get a proper review rather than just "too complex, please break it up". Release notes: tools.nilcoalescing.com/swiftfairy/r...

tiny tip from shipping solo apps

when an update has 4 "small" things, users only remember one.

pick the one that hurts most if missing, ship that, park the rest.

My 43 iOS simulators hold 49 GB. Apps and their data: 2.6 GB. Lock screen posters: 21 GB, almost all .atx textures on the iOS 27 devices, 14 GB on one. Then 10 GB of assets, 7 of logs, 5 of caches. xcrun simctl erase resets one.

One thing I keep running into in this agentic engineering era: ideas I've had, or am working on, ship first from someone else. It's inevitable.

As an indie, it can feel like permanent catch-up. But it's pushing me to focus and be more ambitious. How are other indies handling it?

Besides reviewing code, I've been using SwiftFairy while building new features. Asking the agent to check SwiftFairy before working on Swift or SwiftUI code allows it to pull in relevant examples for the APIs it's about to use.
