Working on a little calendar widgets app to try out the new #widgetkit stuff…maybe something to release this fall? 😉

The hardest parts of software dev are when you don't know the right questions to ask. Well crafted, frequently done tasks are easy to google and have lots of results. Harder, though, is not being able to say exactly what you want to do because you're new to the domain, and you don't know the terms. I've been building a #widgetkit #ios app in #swiftui and having a hard time mostly because I am so unfamiliar with xcode. I can't seem to get debugging to work, and I'm not googling the right things

Ugh why won’t my #widgetkit widget read user defaults from the parent iOS app? Both have access to the same group identifier. Sigh. New to #swiftui

I am starting to work on a new app.

It uses HealthKit, Photo Library, SwiftData, MapKit, CloudKit, SharePlay, WidgetKit, AppIntents and more frameworks.

Available on iPhone, iPad, and Vision Pro.

Anyone experienced this when running Widgets on WidgetKit simulator for the mac? I cannot figure out what’s going on and couldn’t find anything about this… 🤔

Not seeing the results I expected building a rectangular Lock Screen widget. If I display a tiny piece of text and an SF Symbol with LabeledContent the top and bottom get cut off. But if I put the same info in HStacks separated by a Spacer() everything looks fine. 🤔

SwiftUI widget question: In the examples I've found for making a network call from a widget they, as I would expect, do it inside a call to getTimeline. But through logging I see that getTimeline is called multiple times at the same time for a widget. It looks like it gets called for each of the supported sizes. I don't want six simultaneous network calls to pull down information I only need once. How do people get around this? #SwiftUI #WidgetKit #Widget #getTimeline
