For the Swift Student Challenge I created a ray-tracer which respects general relativity (to the extent of the Schwarzschild solution) and renders blackholes; the fiery disk around the blackhole is in-fact flat! (the bending of light creates the iconic blackhole halo)

I've just published the February and March SwiftCrossUI development update video. It was a bit delayed, so some of the information has been superseded since filming, but it should be interesting nonetheless! youtu.be/RzT7_priAE8

SwiftCrossUI now supports hot reloading on Linux! If you'd like to try it out, install the latest commit of Swift Bundler, and create a new project from the SCUI hot reloading template. Then you can run the project with the ‘--hot’ flag, and everything should "just work” (TM)

Much of my recent work has been supported by @videovillageco, meaning that for now funds will mostly go to moreSwift’s external core contributors (who have so far done everything for the love of open source ❤️).

Windows apps built with SwiftCrossUI are now 200mb smaller! 🎉 SwiftPM's static linking support has recently improved on Windows, allowing me to merge swift-winui and all of its dependencies into a single monorepo with static linking.

Mia Koring (a frequent SwiftCrossUI contributor) just released KeyringAccess, essentially KeychainAccess for Linux!
Packages like KeyringAccess help to reduce the barrier for porting macOS apps to Linux

I've been working on SwiftCrossUI for ages and I still refer back to our Swift dev environment setup guides occasionally when setting up new VMs, so others will surely find them useful too; even more so now that they're easier to follow!

I've recently merged some big AppBackend protocol changes into SwiftCrossUI. Kaleb Ascevich, who first contributed to SCUI earlier this year, refactored the 2000-line protocol into about 3 dozen smaller protocols, roughly separating the API surface by feature.

This has made it much easier to implement new backends incrementally, and makes it possible to implement missing backend features from application code 👀
The PR was a monster to review, but was totally worth it: github.com/moreSwift/swift-c…
