Apple Retail. Cereal entrepreneur (yes I know … pls forgive my Dad humor now & then). 1st business out of architecture school was Computing Workshop (later CW AppleCentre), Dublin, Ireland.

I've tried to capture my excitement for developing for visionOS in a single blog post. In short, I believe that this represents the start of the next major computing paradigm and poses a tremendous opportunity for developers. I'm expecting to be a “day one" developer and will do everything I can to develop expertise in this platform as quickly as possible. The early stages of new platforms aren't always easy to work on, but the possibilities they allow for are immense.

A Developer's View of Vision Pro - David Smith, Independent iOS Developer

It got a bit buried with WWDC, but Jony Ive has a really great interview out this week. Worth your time to read. https://www.mckinsey.com/capabilities/mckinsey-digital/our-insights/the-creative-process-is-fabulously-unpredictable-a-great-idea-cannot-be-predicted
‘The creative process is fabulously unpredictable. A great idea cannot be predicted’

In this interview, Jony Ive, the former design head of Apple, discusses what it takes for organizations to allow creativity to grow and thrive.

First Impressions of Vision Pro and VisionOS

In the same way that the introduction of multitouch with the iPhone removed a layer of conceptual abstraction — instead of touching a mouse or trackpad to move an on-screen pointer to an object on screen, you simply touch the object on screen — VisionOS removes a layer of abstraction spatially.

Monday’s Vision Pro keynote was astonishing, but it brought me back to another Apple moment in time … Dexpo ‘87, where John Sculley intro’s this video, with disclaimer that “our legal people insisted I tell you that this is not a product announcement”!

Moving over from that other place as I miss my Apple community, especially this week!
