Getting access to the userIdentity on the owner property of a CKShare.
I created this format as a way to make recipes as interoperable as possible and to make passing rich information between Caramel users incredibly easy.
In iOS 13, Apple introduced a slew of new colors that are also dynamic – meaning they will adjust between light and dark modes (and other scenarios, such as high contrast). Of the new colors, the various background colors are pretty pecular: iOS defines two sets of background colors—system and grouped—each of which contains primary,…
A few tips on sharing with CloudKit. Using sharedCloudDatabase and zones and a little on UICloudSharingController and UICloudSharingControllerDelegate

If you are working with SpriteKit, there is no doubt you’ll come across the need to place some sort of scroll menu in place after some time.
I am currently redoing a lot of the icons in Caramel so this article couldn’t have come at a better time.
TL;DR: You or your client probably has Reduce Motion enabled in their Accessibility options.
Over the source of Caramel’s development I struggled with organizing code using extensions so I spent some time pooling together a few resources from Swift experts.
Just a quick tip for those who are trying to set the presentation controller delegate to capture presentationControllerDidAttemptToDismiss from UIAdaptivePresentationControllerDelegate or any of the like using iOS 13’s new modal.
I began to follow this pattern when developing Mango and it’s quickly become one of my favorite and most powerful ways to connect View Models to their controllers. I’ve continued the pattern into Caramel 2 and without a doubt it’s a way I’ll continue to organize code in future projects, even when moving away from…
NSPersistentContainer is about to change your world.
I suggest setting automaticallyMergesChangesFromParent so it can observe changes from the parent store.
NSBatchDeleteRequest works by deleting directly from the store and even though it’s the managedObjectContext executing the request, it happens outside of its knowledge and therefore, isn’t aware of the persistent store change.
I spend quite a bit of time developing and will occasionally write about some of my experiences. You can also find my musings @iosdev.space@nemesisprime
