Þetta reddast! -Icelandic optimistic saying: Everything works out.
Well. I had a friend remind me of the Green button on the menu bar. The little "Fill and Arrangement" tools there do this. Or use Option and click the green button. POOF.
Weird concession to how Windows manages...windows. One of the few things I actually like: When you drag an application to the top menu bar, it expands the window to fit the screen. The only equivalent I have in macOS is some keyboard shortcuts for Raycast that helps with window management.
This may be a "Old man shakes fist" thought but: a number clicker app should not charge $12.99 IAP. I get that we, as devs, want to have some income for our projects. $13 to turn off ads on what is really just a digital hand clicker is a bit silly. Charge $3 and be done with it.
Alright. That's all. Oh, and stay off my yard! *shakes fist*
sara"I was born in an Iranian prison. My parents were held in their jails. My uncles lie in their mass graves. Nothing you can tell me about the crimes of the Iranian regime that I haven’t lived in blood and bone. That doesn’t mean I want my people bombed, maimed, killed, their homes in ruins. If your vision of liberation comes only through the destruction of innocent lives, then it’s not freedom you’re after.”

Oh gosh. Uploaded project to TestFlight. Open on iPhone. Find *massively glaring bug* in the first 5 seconds of use. Whelp! OKAY!
tanteWorth repeating: Claims of "AI" democratizing anything (coding, creative endeavors, etc) are always BS. The thing locking out people from doing that is not having the time/resources.
You want to democratize coding/art/creativity? Give people paid time off to do it and access to infrastructure. Easy.
Here's another weird thing I just found: SwiftData does not like the type annotation on a few specific things. I had to remove a type annotation from an Enum and a Date() variable and use a more direct way:
var foo: EnumType = .bar (this gave me a very vague error) vs.
var foo = EnumType.bar (cleared error)
Thats....interesting?
It had been a minute, but I managed to work on my project for a few days in a row. Got some Reminders implemented, though still have to weed out a few strange bugs on that. The most interesting thing I learned was the `@Observable` macro does not like the `@AppStorage` property wrapper. Mostly because the later updates directly without triggering the observed class. (Yay research)
The hacky solutions I found are not worth it. I don't mind using the ObservableObject type alias.
