SwiftUI Performance and Interop in iOS 27
How iOS 27 SwiftUI handles lazy-stack scrolling, GPU shader effects, and AppKit/UIKit interop, drawn from three official WWDC26 UI Frameworks sessions.
AI & TechnologyWriting
Thoughts on design, development, AI infrastructure, and building products.
RealityKit And Reality Composer Pro 3 In 2026
WWDC26 matured Apple's spatial pipeline: RealityKit lighting and cloth, plus a standalone Reality Composer Pro 3 with live preview and Xcode plug-ins.
AI & TechnologyOn-Device AI Across iOS 27: Spotlight and Media
iOS 27 threads the on-device model through the system: SpotlightSearchTool makes Core Spotlight LLM-grounded, and AVFoundation generates subtitles on device.
AI & TechnologyMetal for Machine Learning in 2026
WWDC26 made Metal a first-class ML compute surface: Metal tensors for custom kernels, the M5 neural accelerator, real-time neural rendering, and MLX Swift.
AI & TechnologyHealthKit in iOS 27: Workout Zones, New Types
iOS 27 makes workout heart-rate zones first-class HealthKit data via HKWorkoutZoneConfiguration and HKWorkoutZoneGroup, plus new menopausalState types.
AI & TechnologyYour Agent Has Two Untrusted Inputs
AI agents have two untrusted inputs: code the model writes and tool output it reads. One now has a real WASM sandbox; the other, MCP tool poisoning, does not.
AI & TechnologyThe iOS 26 Widget Surface: One App Intent, Many Places
iOS 26 widgets, Control Center controls, and Live Activities are all App Intents surfaces. One intent powers buttons, controls, and Live Activity actions.
AI & TechnologyApple's Translation Framework: Free, On-Device, and Sharper Than It Looks
Apple's Translation framework: free on-device translation via translationPresentation and TranslationSession, plus the offline-download edges demos skip.
AI & TechnologyApple Foundation Models: The On-Device LLM Framework, Explained
Apple's Foundation Models framework: LanguageModelSession, @Generable guided generation, tool calling, availability, and when to leave the on-device model.
AI & TechnologyMLX on Apple Silicon: When You Need Your Own Model, Not Apple's
Foundation Models gives you Apple's sealed on-device LLM. MLX runs your own: quantized open-weight models and LoRA fine-tunes on Apple Silicon.
AI & TechnologySwift 6.2 Concurrency in Practice: Default to MainActor, Escape on Purpose
Swift 6.2 inverts concurrency: default your module to MainActor (SE-0466), run nonisolated async on the caller (SE-0461), escape with @concurrent.
AI & TechnologyWhen the Maintainer Is the Attacker: jqwik 1.10.0
jqwik 1.10.0 emits a destructive prompt-injection string in Maven output. ANSI escapes hide it from humans. The maintainer added it on purpose.
