Stand-up #104 - ✅ First tab done in SwiftUI.
Hi,
Project: https://amicu.app/ - Reminders to keep in touch with people.
I completed one part of the new app. I also added new content to the inspiration section. 2 tabs left, but they're more complex.
Yesterday's progress:
- IH podcast & sports
Today's progress:
- MicroConf MasterMind
- Post on Reddit
- Coding in SwiftUI
- New content
- Fix some things on the website
Hi Kai, thanks for sharing. Any reason why you chose SwiftUI over React Native / Flutter? Cheers, T
I want to learn it and I already have the existing application in Swift and UIKit so it makes sense for me.
Personally, I don't like React Native, but I also don't have much experience with it.
I have experience with Flutter and I like it. So it could be an alternative. But my priority is to make a good product and not dealing with two different platforms. And if Android isn't the priority now there's not many benefits. I'm also not sure how well native contact access works via Flutter. I only saw some 3rd party frameworks. Widgets in iOS 14 also need SwiftUI.
Users don't care about the tech stack. I didn't think a lot about this. When the first SwiftUI version is done I can see how it compares to my Flutter experience.
Got it. That makes sense.
Very nice, I'm also trying to learn Swift UI. Can you share some resources?
My preferred approach is learning by doing. So I don't follow particular content, but use the documentation / StackOverflow / Hackingwithswift when something blocks me.
This means I learn just what I need in that moment to implement the next step.
I don't know your experience. If you are just getting started there's many sample app tutorials by Hacking With Swift on YouTube.
