Notifications are crucial for keeping users engaged with your app. Almost all of my apps provide notifications that not only launch the app but also navigate to different parts of the app. Today, I want to share how I build deep links for local notifications in my apps.

The recent version of the SwiftUI framework introduces a trigger value pattern across its APIs. Trigger value allows us to attach a view modifier that runs its action whenever the trigger value changes. You can find this pattern while using sensory feedback or launching keyframe animation in SwiftUI. This week, we will learn how to build custom view modifiers using trigger value pattern.

Swift Concurrency became a vital part of my development stack. I leverage the power of the new Swift Concurrency features like async/await and task groups almost everywhere. SwiftUI Button type doesn’t support Swift Concurrency out of the box, but it is flexible enough to allow us to build a button type supporting Swift Concurrency. Enhancing the Xcode Simulators.

The Swift language allows us to define thread-safe types using actors. Actor type automatically manages serial access to the data it protects. But what if we need multiple types protected by a single serial access queue? That’s why we have global actors, and today, we will learn how to use global actors in Swift.

Another week on a series of posts about discovering Swift packages. This week, we will discover the Swift Async Algorithms package, allowing us to completely switch from the Combine framework to the Swift Concurrency feature with async/await. We will learn what the Swift Async Algorithms package offers to eliminate the Combine framework. Enhancing the Xcode Simulators.

The second iteration of the StoreKit framework was the most significant change in my apps during the last few years. The recent version of the StoreKit framework has fully adopted Swift language features like async and await. This week, we will talk about the StoreKitTest framework, which is not a part of StoreKit 2 but is tightly coupled with it. Enhancing the Xcode Simulators.
