@pfandrade@mastodon.social @gruber@mastodon.social I went through the transition to SwiftUI a few years back. Built a few apps with it, including for the mac. The thing is, whether it is good or bad has become a bit moot. Is anyone writing code now? I *use* everything from UIKit to next.js in my software now, because I don't *write* any of it. Programming languages and APIs are becoming invisible.

@drewmccormack@mastodon.social @gruber@mastodon.social I’ve heard this argument before. I get the idea behind it, but I don’t back it entirely. I still want to reuse code on different platforms if possible. And I still want my code to be readable and maintainable by *me*. Even if it’s written originally by an LLM. SwiftUI seemed like a great cross platform framework. And I still hope it matures into something that can actually build great Mac apps.
