23 🇩🇰 Studying for a degree in Software Engineering 💻 I enjoy building mobile/desktop apps and embedded projects and working on massive heavy-lift drones. Also learning to sew garments as a hobby to tailor clothes for myself 🪡 I mostly share progress updates as I'm working on my software and drone projects, and as I learn to sew. Basically, I just write about my hobbies...

LLMs constantly forget that AppKit uses a lower-left origin whereas SwiftUI uses a top-left coordinate system. Have experienced this problem so many times after I switched from SwiftUI to AppKit.
I’m in the process of replacing the ‘Files’ sidebar view of my notes app from #SwiftUI to a pure #AppKit version. I thought AI would be able to do it no problem, but GPT 5.6 Terra is kinda struggling. The UI looks nothing like before even though I explicitly told it to match the UI 1:1… And it is cutting corners by not implementing the same functionality. Seems like I gotta do it mostly myself 😩
Progress is being made for my little vector design app! 💻 It's now possible to display a distance measurement between two objects - e.g. between two text objects. Besides this, I also added two small labels that can be displayed next to vector lines. One label for name of line and another for the length measurement. Line names cannot be changed yet, but at some point, I will add a panel for layers where they can be renamed, locked, toggle visibility, etc. Basically, the same as in Adobe Illustrator and other design applications. My plan is for the layer name to be the line name as well. The UI of my app is a little rough, but the most important thing is the functionality to work perfectly. The UI can easily be changed anytime. #dev #macOS #Swift #AppKit
Finished Cory Doctorow’s book called Enshittification. Will read Technofeudalism next. #books image
Guidelines and snapping is now working for the pen tool in my canvas design app 🚀 But I noticed while screen recording that I forgot to add snapping support when about to insert the very first anchor point for a path... #dev #macOS #Swift #AppKit
Copy, cut, paste, undo, and redo is now also working in the app. #dev #Swift #AppKit
I got the pen tool mostly working in my canvas design app. There are more essential features that should be implemented like Bézier curves and the ability to add more anchor points inside a path.
It's now possible to insert multiple images at the same time into the canvas. The images will offset diagonally to make them all visible instead of just stacking directly on top of each other. Regarding my decision to abandon #SwiftUI and only use #AppKit, I'm very happy with that decision. It has turned out to be an excellent choice. #dev
I’m starting my business again selling industrial sewing machines. I received the first two machines just now. #business image
