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
A common annoyance using iOS share sheets that just opening them will lock up the UI before showing options. UIActivityItemProvider is the solution.
Quietly slipped into iOS 13 and in classic Apple fashion, the expanded documentation for UIImpactFeedbackGenerator’s new styles and impactOccurred(intensity:) say “No overview available.” but being one of my favorite things for iPhone and waiting a long time for this, I did a little research into what’s capable with these new APIs.
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…

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.
This is a fun fact for all of you CSS heads out there that I didn’t realize until this morning: The :before and :after pseudo elements only can be applied to containing elements, which makes sense, but hasn’t been something I’ve come across yet. While the button tag, which is a container and can have…
For awhile now I’ve been trying to create a new section in my blog dedicated to highlighting out others’ UI blunders in an attempt to learn from mistakes past made. Let’s take a look at iTunes 11 today and point out the things that seemingly don’t matter, but really do. A list of tracks in…
In the first part of this series, we learned how exactly PHP works and functions. We learned how to call PHP within a file, the basic functions echo() and print(), and how to work with variables. It didn’t seem that hard, now did it? One of the most common things PHP is used for is…
