153 posts under the SwiftUI tag, plus wwdc25 and wwdc26. Filtering them against what our code actually contains turned up one real defect and a short list worth keeping. The defect is plurals. A checkout screen renders "\(count) coupons", whose Czech translation is the single form "%lld kupónů" — so it says "1 kupónů" and "3 kupónů", wrong for every count below five. The article that surfaced it recommends inflect:, which covers English, Spanish and six others but not Czech, the language that needs three forms rather than two. Plural variations in the String Catalog are the fix for us; the entry says so rather than repeating the article's advice. Two entries are filed against a future rather than now: swipe action buttons draw their titles from iOS 26, which will surprise us the day we add a custom one, and a Form inside a sheet covers the glass behind it, which starts to matter if the payment sheet ever gets a medium detent. The rest is recorded as swept and skipped, with reasons — including that Core Spotlight and the search tab are things we already do correctly, and that three posts are covered better by the skills shipping inside Xcode. A sweep that leaves no trace of what it rejected gets repeated. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

| apple-findings | A curated file of Apple platform APIs worth adopting, each with where we found it and what it would replace in our code — iOS 26 UI affordances (close button role, concentric corners), modern scrolling APIs, and things noted for a later deployment target. Use when reviewing SwiftUI code for outdated patterns, when a hand-built control might have a system equivalent, or when deciding whether a newly published API is worth adopting. |
Findings
Things worth adopting that we found elsewhere — release notes, other people's writing, conference talks — written up in our own words with the source named, and with the part nobody else can write for us: what it would replace in our code and whether it is actually a step forward.

How to add an entry
Write it yourself. Do not paste someone else's prose or their longer code examples. An API signature is a fact and facts are free; a paragraph explaining it is their work. Name the source and link it — that is courtesy and it lets the next person check whether the entry has aged.
Every entry answers four things:
- What it is — the API, in one or two sentences.
- What it replaces — the hand-built thing in our code, with the file if we know it. An entry without this is a bookmark, not a finding.
- Whether it is a step forward — sometimes the honest answer is "no, ours is fine", and that is worth recording so nobody re-litigates it.
- Source — author, title, link, date read.
If an entry turns out to be wrong or the API changes, fix it in place and say so. A stale finding is worse than no finding, because it is quoted with confidence.
