alright I've got a week to build and ship a swift app. it took me three hours to get from my initial idea to seeing "hello world" on my phone. here's hoping that was the hard part.

so far the hardest thing by far has been understanding how the hell Xcode works and why the hell it works that way

I didn't know such thing even existed lol, now I just finished a youtube tutorial on Xcode and man It's SO COOL and ended up very familiar to me coming from Figma and some basic coding knowledge using VScode. I can't wait to start building some shit!!

personally I can't stand xcode lol and I'm coming from the same tools (figma/vscode)! wound up just using xcode for project management and catching errors, and writing all the actual code in vscode/cursor instead. either way, lots of fun! :) good luck building!

so far pretty good! I know a lot of webdev and react so I'm having Claude explain stuff using parallel examples from react which is super helpful. I'm also using Cursor which honestly kinda feels like cheating.
