So happy with what @johnvoorhees had to say about my little app!
@eabowers Right?! 😅
@irodknocker I'm aiming to submit the update to Apple within the next couple of days 😊
@alpennec Yep! I had to write a custom MKOverlayRenderer to work around some UX issues with MKTileOverlayRenderer.
@jefframes Haha, it did contribute! 😅
We finally caved 👀

🚀 Introducing Charged - an iOS app to help EV drivers find chargers and check real-time connector availability.
No availability? Set up a monitor and Charged will let you know when a connector becomes available with a Live Activity + notification.
Global coverage: Charged has almost 2 million chargers around the world – almost certainly having area covered!

Another @DeepDishSwift episode is out! 🍕
In this one, @kaidombrowski and I chat with @harlan about the unexpected events that led him to Apple platform development, his journey moving coast to coast, then back again – via Colorado – and how he happened to work on hardware for the most popular video in YouTube’s history 🎥

The 10th(!) episode of the @DeepDishSwift Podcast is out 🍕
This time, @kaidombrowski and I chat with @reftonull about animations, Metal, and adding those finishing touches to make an app shine! ✨

Three months of job-hunting. Like the description says, there aren't any deep insights here, just things I've learnt during the process: https://blog.viditb.com/three-months-of-job-hunting/

Just like the past couple of years, @kaidombrowski and I are running a pre-WWDC meetup in San Jose this year! 🍏
It filled up quickly on Meetup, but we've still got some tickets left on Luma. Should be super fun! 😃
@malin @_Davidsmith And finally: "Can you make the latte art a Swift bird (as in the logo of the programming language)?” which got us the one we decided to go with. Super impressive how "stable" the images are between prompts. It's the first model I can just iterate on an idea in plain English. 😊
