Here’s a few tools for Swift devs that solve a niche problem: making Apple Developer docs play nicely with LLMs—now in multiple flavors!

1. https://sosumi.ai Sosumi (clever😉) “translates Apple Developer documentation, Human Interface Guidelines, WWDC sessions, and external Swift-DocC sites into AI-friendly Markdown.”

Hey! 👋 We’re back with another blog post:

We canvassed our team of technical and non-technical professionals to see if/how they’re using AI, and where they are (or aren’t) finding it useful.

Is everyone “vibe coding” during their off hours? Are our engineers 10x-ing productivity on every project?? Give it a read and find out! 😝

3 Perspectives on AI and Vibe Coding – Lickability

Getting the perspectives of our technical, and non-technical, staff members.

We’re hard at work, so how about winding down the week with a discussion topic: What does the future of using apps look like?

But how many people want these workflows to be ubiquitous? Are some problems begging for agentic automation, while others are best solved through thoughtful UX? Or will we realize these workflows work best in certain niches and not as a universal solution?

What are your thoughts?

AI has changed how a lot of people are working with software while building (agents, prompting, etc.), and many companies are integrating this workflow into the core levels of their products (Copilot in Windows 11, Apple’s upcoming “Extensions” in iOS 27).
