Man, it's ups and downs all week. I'm mentally doing well but struggling physically today. Happily, I've stuck with 100 Days of SwiftUI and gotten another day done.

I'd only just started exploring GeometryReader in my generative art experiments recently, so it was nice to see it introduced in 100 …

I'm feeling a little better today, jamming to KEXP and working on some 100 Days of SwiftUI.

The challenges today were fun, although two of them highlighted more general issues I'm having with SwiftUI: - Adding text styling based on the amount was simple enough, but as far as I can …

I'm dragging today, couldn't sleep at all last night. At some point I got up to get a glass of water and realized I was having migraine aura. I didn't have much headache, but some tightness and lots of visual artifacts. I finally got to bed around 5am and took …

Late night tonight. I didn't get to a session of 100 Days of SwiftUI with everything else that was going on, so I started it near midnight.

I'd used the @ObservableObject property wrapper before, but I'm not sure I totally understood what made it different from @State, despite the obvious …

I'm kind of in a mental fog today, too many meetings and not enough actual coding lately. But I did find a little time for 100 Days of SwiftUI.

I was encouraged to read Paul's mention of the cognitive speed bump when transitioning from imperative to declarative UI programming. He …

I got a little more 100 Days of SwiftUI done today.

The challenges today were the hardest for me yet in this 100 Days of SwiftUI thing. Not technically hard, more in terms of how to think about adding animation to a view or transition. I've gotten comfortable thinking about …

Two small wins today: - I worked from a coffee shop for an hour, and - I got another day of 100 Days of SwiftUI done.

We covered more animation with SwiftUI today, and most of it was brand new to me. One hiccup I ran into: the SwiftUI preview canvas in …

It's the Fourth of July, but I managed to squeeze in some 100 Days of SwiftUI work today.

We went over animation basics in SwiftUI, which was the first time in this 100 Days journey that the content was almost entirely new to me.

Doing explicit animations using withAnimation() was …

One more 100 Days of SwiftUI project in the books today.

The most interesting bit of the challenges for Project 5 was calculating the score - for me it seemed like a case for using swift's reduce function. I don't do a lot of functional programming (any, really) so I don't …

One more day of 100 Days of SwiftUI on the books.

Still not much new in terms of SwiftUI features. I liked the pattern of guard and simple functions returning booleans as validation for the text input. It was definitely cleaner than stuffing the error alert creation into the validation …
