SwiftUI is a design tool from the future. For #WWDC23, @dillwanner and I gave a talk on how we’ve been using it to design Apple Maps, and how you can do the same! Full video: developer.apple.com/videos/play/ww…
The design talk on the new icon system is too good. developer.apple.com/videos/play/ww…
This is a must watch
did a WWDC design talk with @chan_k and @kediashubham to introduce Liquid Glass. lucky/honored/proud to represent the work of some of the most talented (and sweetest) people i have ever met. check it out: developer.apple.com/videos/play/ww…
Thrilled to share the project we’ve been working on for the past year! Liquid Glass is a flexible material that constantly adapts to its size and environment, and lays the foundation for a unified design language across all our platforms.
I love this quote from Bret. Jump on new ideas, and bring them to life!

I've been watching some Config talks this weekend. Here are two that I loved. @mwichary on the beauty of pixel fonts: youtube.com/watch?v=SDI8ub… @asallen on bringing inspiration from video games to software: youtube.com/watch?v=wBnIyD… What are some others I should watch?
If you only watch one WWDC video this year… Create custom visual effects with SwiftUI by @philipcdavis + @DLX developer.apple.com/videos/play/ww…
For #WWDC24, I got to team up with @DLX and give a talk on creating visual effects with SwiftUI! If you’re a designer or engineer, interested in making interfaces that are expressive and pleasant to use, we made it for you! developer.apple.com/videos/play/ww…
Ive: There is a remarkable efficiency how much a single part can do. Can we do the job of those six parts, with just one?
Good advice from @paulg: Have the confidence to cut. Don't keep something that doesn't fit just because you're proud of it, or because it cost you a lot of effort.
just dropped (my first ever) youtube video (sorry!) how to create your best work in 2024, 8 principles for creatives — full vid here: youtu.be/vxC-5h4TQRA
It's wonderful seeing Things on Vision Pro. culturedcode.com/things/blog/

Curious how the Dynamic Island app morph animation works? I built a similar mesh transform animation in SwiftUI, and open-sourced it! It’s simple, interruptible, runs at 120hz, and doesn’t use any private APIs: github.com/jtrivedi/Mesh-…
A very useful concept from the first Apple HIG (1987). People want to feel that they are in charge of the computer's activities.

Love seeing the @iA team making their way into physical products. The new iA Notebook looks wonderful. ia.net/topics/ia-writ…
