G\u2019day, iOS Dev weekly subscribers.<\/p>\n
My name\u2019s Andyy<\/a>, and I\u2019m one of the new authors of this emblematic newsletter. I\u2019ve been a longtime subscriber and have even been featured once or twice in these weekly editions, so it\u2019s a real honour to now be a part of the team.<\/p>\n I was looking back through my inbox to see how long I\u2019ve been reading it, and the earliest issue I could find was Issue #97 from June 1, 2013. Absolutely wild. \ud83e\udd2f<\/p>\n Anyway, a bit about myself\u2026 I\u2019m an iOS engineer based in Melbourne, Australia. I\u2019ve been part of this wonderful community for quite a while now in one capacity or another; writing blogs, giving talks, attending meetups and conferences, and everything in between.<\/p>\n In my spare time, I love heading to the mountains each winter to chase the snow. In fact, I enjoy it so much that I\u2019ve decided to build my first snowboarding and skiing tracking app, Yewki<\/a>.<\/p>\n These days, I\u2019m fascinated by how the AI movement is changing the way we work and making so many aspects of software engineering accessible to people all over the world. It\u2019s such a fast-moving space, and it\u2019s brought a level of excitement to app development that I haven\u2019t felt since the App Store first launched.<\/p>\n \u2013 Andyy Hope<\/p>\n The Platform for Agentic macOS Development<\/a><\/p>\n Orka helps engineering teams automate and scale macOS environments for CI\/CD, testing, and AI-driven workflows. Spin up Apple silicon VMs on demand via API, CLI, or MCP, integrate with your existing toolchain, and manage everything through Kubernetes-native orchestration. Don\u2019t let shared runners, slow builds, and limited macOS controls hold you back. Join a live demo to learn more about Orka<\/a>.<\/p>\n GPT 5.6: Sol released<\/a><\/p>\n We\u2019re in the middle of another frontier model battle this week, with the release of OpenAI\u2019s GPT 5.6: Sol, and Anthropic extending access to Fable 5<\/a> for a few extra days, and on top of that a weekly refresh of tokens. All us token goblins are eating good this week.<\/p>\n SwiftUI Performance<\/a><\/p>\n One thing I\u2019m super passionate about is performance and tooling. Artem<\/a> provides a excellent post about the basic of agentic skills, and the lifecycle of a SwiftUI view. A great read and something I\u2019ll be adding to my arsenal.<\/p>\n Splitting Large SwiftUI Views in the Apple way<\/a><\/p>\n Speaking of SwiftUI, Emre<\/a> writes about how to split those monolithic SwiftUI views with the News<\/h2>\n
