long shot question:

#SwiftUI Mac app.

has anyone had luck getting windowToolbarStyle to restore the AppStorage bound value as explained in the Apple docs?

.windowToolbarLabelStyle($labelStyle)

does not appear to work no matter how I try it. Followed the sample code provided exactly. Doesn’t work.

SwiftUI lists and tables on macOS struggle with large datasets, prompting me to design a custom scrollable list view with efficient view recycling for optimal performance. Details in my latest post:

Very cool to see @swiftlang join Mastodon!

Hoping the existing #Swift community here shows them a warm welcome and the enormous opportunity to engage with developers on a free and open platform.

#Swift #SwiftUI #Combine

Yeah, Combine is soft-deprecated, on its way out, whatever

And ObservableObject is old

Am I a fool for still reaching for them when I need to do something like this? Have a raw and debounced versions of a property, both gettable, settable, and observable as needed, both in SwiftUI and anywhere else

And the code is pretty tight I think

How would you do this, say, in the new Observable world without Combine?

I released a new book

SwiftUI Fundamentals combines my knowledge and experience from using SwiftUI since its release and working on its source code at Apple to give you a solid understanding of the most important aspects of the framework:

I am ready to scream at #SwiftUI

I just spend two hours debugging a LazyVGrid that displayed perfectly on iOS but not on macOS. When I traced into it I could see that on macOS it was constantly recalculating the view in an infinite loop.

I eventually gave up and replaced the LazyVGrid with a VStack, because no body's got time for that.

A "cross platform declarative UI toolkit" my butt.

I wrote a blog post on how to build a macOS menu bar utility in #SwiftUI using MenuBarExtra, customize its icon, hide it from the Dock, and add a quit option:
