“Quidquid latine dictum sit, altum sonatur.”
Christian TietzeThis is my media transfer protocol application that I built from scratch to quickly drag and drop, sync and inspect with quick look documents on a Supernode E-ink device.
It also works on other Android devices like phones and Boox tablets.
The MTP protocol is flaky and not a joy to test.
But the app is making it up for me by feeling Mac-assed. Quick-looking files on the device is really great.

CDE - An Attempt to Make Core Data Feel More Like Modern Swift
In my previous article, I discussed the current reality of Core Data in today's projects: it hasn't disappeared, and it still has unique value, but the disconnect between it and modern Swift projects is becoming increasingly apparent. In this article, I will introduce my experimental project Core Data Evolution, exploring whether we can make Core Data continue to exist in modern Swift projects in a more natural way?
My talk from iOS Conf SG 2026 is now officially on YouTube!
🎬 "Using SwiftUI as a Language"
👉 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VPfxm8RHKFU
But honestly, the talk was just one part of it. What made iOS Conf SG truly special was the people — the hallway conversations, the shared ideas, and the chance to connect with so many passionate and talented developers from around the world.
These gatherings remind me why our community is great. I left Singapore inspired and can’t wait for the next one.
Using SwiftUI as a Language
"Kings had always been involved and impoverishing their people in wars, pretending generally, if not always, that the good of the people was the object. This our [Constitutional] Convention understood to be the most oppressive of all Kingly oppressions; and they resolved to so frame the Constitution that no one man should hold the power of bringing this oppression upon us."
Abraham Lincoln. 1848-02-15.

(full disclosure: I have a bunch of open optimizer bugs so I have a vested interest in this team having more engineers 😇)

LLM's just can't replace a learning organization's learning constituents. Not just "not yet", but in principle.
If you are not running OS 26 and need to run `Xcode_26.4_beta` for now it looks like running `Contents/MacOS/Xcode` from command line still sort of works. The Xcode app opens and seems to build projects ok for now.
Dave DeLongTickets are LIVE for #SwiftRockies! There are only 180 seats available for this round-table conference in Calgary on July 22 and 23rd.
I'll teach you how to build SwiftUI views with APIs that look and feel like Apple's native containers. Custom tab views? Navigation stacks? Timelines? No problem! All fully styleable, hooked into the SwiftUI environment, and without littering "AnyView" all over.
