I've finally released my first open source package PhoneNumberKitSwiftUI, it's a SwiftUI Textfield for phone numbers that updates the formatting as the number is typed using the popular PhoneNumberKit package.
Special thanks to @fatbobman for his blogs which helped me achieve this.

At the WWDC26 Platforms State of the Union developer keynote, we mentioned that the TrueType font hinting engine had been rewritten in Swift, for speed and memory safety. This article goes into considerable detail on "what" and "how": swift.org/blog/migrating-tru…

DynamicProperty is amazing!! It’s also great for doing work *before* onAppear.
Jun 12
Watching SwiftUI Group Labs from WWDC, such a great, nerdy vibe in these streams. And the info is 💎 I learned to use DynamicProperty instead of .onChange(), never occurred to me this was even an option.

Using Claude in your app is easy with Foundation Models framework:
// 1. Import FM
import FoundationModels
import ClaudeForFoundationModels
// 2. Model and session
let model = ClaudeLanguageModel(name: .sonnet4_6, auth: ...)
let session = LanguageModelSession(model: model)
// 3. Get results
let response = try await session.respond(to: "Generate a 3-day itinerary to Paris.")
Xcode > Add Package Dependencies >

And watch our WWDC26 session to learn more!

New for Apple developers: Foundation Models support for Claude lets developers use Apple's Foundation Models framework to call Claude for multi-step reasoning, code generation, and longer context.

PaperKit is now available on macOS (retroactively back to macOS 26), bringing drawing and Apple Pencil support to the platform.👀
Just another hint that a touchscreen MacBook might not be too far away.

Make sure you look at what our MCP server is delivering as well. If you connect to that, there are many, many brand new AppIntents, FoundationModels, etc. guides delivered via that route as well, particularly in cases where there are so many different tools and techniques that forcing all those skills into any agent you hooked up wouldn’t really be responsible of us.

Does this mean all those institutional purchases can be monetized now?

New in subscriptions
Sometimes an app subscription isn’t purchased by a person. It’s purchased by a company, a school, or an entire organization.
Apple is introducing new subscription options: Group Purchases and Volume Purchasing.
This could open the door to entirely new distribution channels for subscription apps.

A little behind schedule this year – askwwdc.com is up with the Keynote SOTU.
The rest of the sessions are indexing – I’ll tweet when it goes live...
Big plans for Ask WWDC this summer. I want to make it the best place to answer Apple developer questions.

Looks like Xcode 27 has a little gift for us 🙂
The tiny menu item every iOS dev has been waiting for.

Apparently, installing the Xcode 27 beta breaks creating VMs and downgrading to the Xcode 26 MobileDevice.pkg doesn't resolve the problem. So, anyone who did install the Xcode beta is out of luck for now.

We just dropped wwdc.ai an agent skill to give all your agents the most up to date info
→ hosted md transcripts/summaries
→ light skill just points to hosted files
→ append .md to any route
→ try it online for free
Happy hacking. S/o to @dcrawbuck

If you ever need to extract all of the code snippets from a WWDC Session and have it all in a single Markdown file, then you can use my little vibe coded WWDCCodeExtractor app. Download source code or the DMG from my GitHub repo.

For iOS 27 apps, you can easily bring back the soft edge from iOS 26 using scrollEdgeEffectStyle(.soft)

Use the @.ContentBuilder instead of ToolbarContentBuilder and ViewBuilder.
ContentBuilder makes type-checking during compilation of your Views *MUCH* faster.
This does NOT need an iOS 27 target. It works in every version.

Has anyone got macOS 27 working on a VM like Bushel or Virtual Buddy?

> "For the 27 releases, we've started writing parts of the core operating system kernel in Swift."
Swift for the Kernel was an awesome project to work on this year! I'm very happy to have been able to make these first steps towards a truly memory-safe kernel possible :)

Swift for the Secure Enclave was an amazing project to work on, and represents just one of the many leaps forward we made this year in terms of security foundations. Special thanks to all of the compiler, standard library, and runtime folks who worked with me to make it possible!
