When you see this new UI, and how the trend will follow it, you will automatically remember that it's an Apple product.
The main point that I can see now, after a week of using it, is that Apple (again) achieved something unique, which is highly aligned with how the company works, and how they want to have "exclusive" products.
Some UI elements look better than others, and in general, they are fine, and again, there is still a beta cycle to polish some more details and animations.
The TabBar animation is one that I definitely don't like, it's "heavy" and it steals too much attention IMHO
Some animations are pretty interesting and definitely welcome, like the one in the menus
I still don't like 100% the new radius and spacing in the lists, but that's something I don't think will change until the final release in September, but you will get used.
This reflection in the "Customize" button looks incredible, that's astonishing, the work to make this work correctly with the colors and light source is an incredible implementation.
Surely, there are some readability issues in some cases, but they can be easily fixed in future betas.
But seeing the big picture, the glass effect animation is a piece of art. The reflection, the distortion, it's a whole new level.
I needed about a week to digest the liquid glass that Apple presented at the WWDC25.
After one week of use, I can say that I'm used to the new design. ๐งต
Delegating AI to write unit tests is such a relief โจ๐๐ป
Thanks for the recommendation!
I ended up using a shortcut that saves the link in a specific project on Things (my go-to choice for task management).
Share your work, I love discovering new projects ๐

Iโm struggling with the layout of my side projects. I love a clean and pixel-perfect design, but Iโve spent too much time tweaking colors, fonts, positions, borders and design changes.
I need to launch my products.
Iโm sure Iโm not the only one who's struggled with this, right?
Nice tip! I just got one of those portable monitors from Arzopa and it's surprisingly good. I'll test it better in a few weeks...
After working 10+ days using only my MacBook, I'm back home and it's great to use an external monitor again.
I'm definitely more productive in a setup with an external monitor. ๐ฅ๏ธ
Thanks! ๐
Finally had some time to work on my GTA Online companion app.
Vehicle details screen is coming along really nicely. I'm displaying some of the data and will add some more soon.
I might tweak the fonts, Iโm still not 100% convinced about my choice...
This is build 1227, if you know what I mean ๐ฌ
Nearly every app should have a retrospective, they're so cool! ๐โฎ๏ธ

I love how simple it is to use ISGraphicIconConfiguration in a plist file to quickly create temporary icons for my apps ๐
Fun fact: Apple uses this to generate some of the icons in the macOS Settings screen. You can even inspect the appex and check the plist.
Absolutely! I understand the reason... And by the way, that was a great example.
