I was low key hoping that Apple would allow us to use navigationTransition in iOS 18 to (easily) build custom transitions for views similar to what we can do in UIKit but there's basically no resources as far as I can tell to show this...
Anything I'm missing or is .zoom really the one thing that we're getting from navigationTransition for now?

Fun productivity hack:
Quit every app before you close your laptop / sleep your computer at the end of the workday. Only open your todo list app / whatever you use for planning.
It's the first and only thing you see in the morning. No distractions, just tasks that need doing.

And we're live! My Privacy Generator tool is now available at https://www.privacymanifest.dev/
It will help you add all kinds of privacy manifest data to your project. The manifest updates in real time so you can immediately see the result of your actions
Copy the new manifest to your clipboard or download it so you can add it directly to Xcode.

I think I'm pretty happy with how this is shaping up for now. Today I'll get it deployed so y'all can give it a spin!

Going back to the gym is probably the best thing I’ve done for my mental health in a long time. I’ve been going twice a week for about a month now and the difference in how I feel is huge. 10/10 would recommend

We’ve had macros for almost a year now and I’m wondering:
- have you written any macros?
- are you actively using macros in your projects? (And are they the ones Apple ships or custom ones)

If you're flying folks out to come speak at your conference the least you should do is pay for their expenses. It always amazes me to hear that speakers are expected to fly out to some conferences completely on their own dime...
Without speakers there's no event. So the bare minimum you can do is make sure they can be at the conference in order to make the event happen.
