We had a nice milestone day in 100 Days of SwiftUI today.

There was some helpful review of the topics we've covered the past two weeks, including a dive into Group vs AnyView and some insight into how to use JSONDecoder with custom key mappings. We also had a challenge …

Core Data Challenges

I haven't been feeling well enough today to be productive in other parts of my life, but at least I got some work done on 100 Days of SwiftUI.

Nothing really exciting in Core Data & SwiftUI today - basically just extending a few things we'd already learned in ways that weren't …

Slightly Advanced Core Data

I got some work done on 100 Days of SwiftUI yesterday (the 30th) but I didn't do a generative art sketch or write this blog post until today (the 31st). Continued stomach issues, combined with visiting family, managed to derail me.

Lots of new stuff in Core Data & SwiftUI for …

Welp, today was not much easier than yesterday. When this heartburn hits it's pretty bad, I think it results in acid burns to my esophagus. It makes for a terrible few days until it all heals up. In the meantime it's just painful. I kept up with 100 Days of …

Ugh, rough day today. Woke up with awful heartburn and I've been useless all day. I did manage to get another day of 100 Days of SwiftUI finished.

The most interesting bit with the challenges today was using an extension on a Core Data class to unwrap and format a …

Bookworm & Core Data

Well, a bit more 100 Days of SwiftUI done. Today was a real grind at work, super secret handshake project underway and I'm wiped out just from all the phone calls. Time to listen to some Billie Eilish and do some creative coding.

Nothing much new today with SwiftUI lessons …

Yay, another chunk of 100 Days of SwiftUI done today. I'm also caught up, the past few days I haven't wrapped up all of the SwiftUI sections and blog posts and generative art on the day proper, so each morning I was finishing up the previous day's work.

We did …

One more day of 100 Days of SwiftUI done today. I also have family in town so I'm not doing much else.

We're tackling Core Data and SwiftUI in this new project, which is super fun. At my day job, working on iNat, we have to do a lot of …

I got a tad more 100 Days of SwiftUI done today, and did some more exciting work on my explorations with the Generative Design book in SwiftUI.

Once again the challenges were quite easy - perhaps I've already done enough Swift or SwiftUI, or perhaps I've used Codable a lot already …

A bit more 100 Days of SwiftUI done today, but the big news is that I learned a ton about Canvas! I'll get to that in a minute. Nothing really new with the CupcakeCorner project, we added Codable support to our Order object and did some basic network requests. I …
