There is a pretty good Swift parser in Swift already - for a long time - in case you didn't know (or don't want to for your NIH): https://github.com/yanagiba/swift-ast

I've finally managed to release my latest project: Lighter.
Very fast #Swift APIs for #SQLite databases that are type-safe down to the actual schema. I think it is quite nice! https://github.com/Lighter-swift/

I built an API generator for SQLite databases using the new package plugins. If someone wants to have pre-release access, let me know (I'd need to add you to the GH orgs).
This is what the APIs look like: https://lighter-swift.github.io/NorthwindSQLite.swift/documentation/northwind/northwind

Know what's diff'icult? Putting 10k items in a SwiftUI List.

Bored waiting for the keynote? Before getting filled up with all the new SwiftUI features, why not do some basic fluttering.

There is a lot to like about Flutter (hot reloads on save, documentation!). But everything is just so ugly 🙈

#Flutter ing

If your #SwiftUI view is simple and doesn't carry state, you don't actually have to create a View struct for them.

That is a funny thing someone came up with accidentally. It's declarative, they said. #SwiftUI

Picture of my new AppleStudio display ... which is still delayed until July 4th.

🏎 mod_swift 0.9.1 is out and now works properly on native M1 Homebrew installs. IMO still the best way to serve most HTTP endpoints in Swift: http://mod-swift.org

IMO things that need major fixing in #SwiftUI are:
- programmatic navigation (user activities / deep linking)
- scalable diffing, or more exactly API for avoiding diffing when it isn't necessary (append to an Array and such)
There are other open ends, but those would be my top 2.

Mastodon perk, early access to my MVC for SwiftUI blog entry (going to release it in a few hours): http://www.alwaysrightinstitute.com/viewcontroller/. Let me know what you think!

A week ago I release CodeEditor v1.2.1. A simple, syntax coloring, TextEditor component for #SwiftUI. Got some nice contributions, including timely support for CocoaPods!
As seen in SVG Shaper for SwiftUI: https://github.com/ZeeZide/CodeEditor

SemVer Minor: Drop support for Swift 5.2 and 5.3. 🙈

Did a small #SwiftUI port of Oliver Epper's Schemes application: https://github.com/helje5/Schemes

Look what arrived. "Examples include ... XML-RPC, SOAP and more". There we go!
