First thing I wanted for Swiftsonic was a set list, not an agenda. That’s why we have Openers and Headliners. The day builds: fresh voices, deep experience, practical Swift and iOS stories. Nashville · Nov 20–22 🎟️ swiftsonicconf.com

Adrian Eves@swifteves.bsky.social · 6d agoMy cat has never fixed a StoreKit edge case. @revenuecat.com has. It handles purchases, validation, entitlements, and subscription data so developers can get back to the part users see. Now they’re backing Swiftsonic, with @mattheaney23.bsky.social in our Headliner lineup.

Fifteen years at Apple. Twenty-five years writing developer songs. This November, @jamesdempsey.net is both a Swiftsonic Headliner and the front man bringing the Breakpoints to Nashville for the first time—HOW??? A talk AND a live set. One very Swiftsonic weekend.
"What's My Set?" is out on the App Store! It's a set counter for workouts, and look at those beautiful Accessibility nutrition labels shipping from day one. Congrats, @chriswu.com! Go download and rate it.
Okay I'm just impatient. It works!

Sunday Build with HWS+: An original word game where players fill a 5x5 grid to spell five words across and five words down simultaneously, with drag and drop plus tile locking. #SundayBuild www.hackingwithswift.com/plus/live-st...
5x5 – Hacking with Swift+
There are lots of word games, but very few original word games. Let’s build one today, with delightfully simple drag and drop mechanics plus locks in place to avoid annoying players as they progress.

Great listen (and watch) from @malinsundberg.com @kaidombrowski.com and @swifteves.bsky.social about "The Community Side of WWDC" - the best part if you ask me. Also filmed in the amazing new WWDC podcast studio at Apple Park 😊 www.youtube.com/watch?v=iLxS...

We've already established that I'm an introvert but I was putting in WORK in Cupertino. I had only told a tiny number of people online at this point so these pre-order numbers were almost all me asking people to help out in person. I was absolutely shameless and outperformed indie fair day. 🤯
My advice to introverts who have an interest in the @communitykit.social Indie Fair? Recruit an extrovert! Bluesky power user @mattheaney23.bsky.social came in clutch and took over after an hour when my voice started going out again. And @joe.inkle.co can verify that I am indeed an introvert.
This is a great app!
Chris Wu 🪐@chriswu.com · 3mo agoI made a new app (first time in 3 years) and it would REALLY help me if you pre-ordered it (for free). What's My Set is a simple, accessibility set counter for workouts with accessibility as a priority. The handy rest/interval timers bump the set counter for you. apps.apple.com/us/app/whats...
🎵 The Devil went down to Nashville looking for a deal to make. I built a game where you can challenge me for a Swiftsonic ticket stake. Beat me for a discount and bragging rights to claim. Because every good music festival needs a questionable side game!
Swiftsonic '26@swiftsonicconf.bsky.social · 3mo ago🤫Feeling the eerie quiet after #WWDC26? Lets make some noise together again in November at SWIFTSONIC! 🎸We dropped SWIFTSONIC ROCKSTAR at WWDC where you can beat @swifteves.bsky.social in a guitar duel for a cheaper ticket! Think you can become rock royalty? 🕹️https://swiftsonicconf.com/rockstar/
I need to unfurl the highest of praise for the one and only @benfreiband.bsky.social. I would not have survived this week at all if not for him. He’s a real one, that Ben!
Thanks to the generosity of our sponsor @revenuecat.com, CommunityKit was able to provide some stellar breakfasts. I hate saying nice things about @benfreiband.bsky.social but he knocked it out of the park (go sports!) with his food orders.
It’s already official. See you CommunityKit 2027!
