Saw this insane video of an app that use apple vision framework to remove the background of an image but what stuck to me was that dust particle effect to transition into the final product.
Im wondering how would one create such effect? AI is useless for this.
Man, you only feel the true power of this beast when dealing with such obscure bugs that not even stackoverflow has answers for it.
I have a React Native app with expo and decided to make my own expo custom module which basically lets you write pure swift into RN.
Long story short, when compiling the app in the cloud to create a preview build, there was a nasty duplicate app intent bug that was driving me insane.
I wasted like 1 hour copying the xcode log into chatgpt so i could save some tokens but man that got me nowhere.
The real breakthrough came when I said f- it lets use codex. It did not one shot it but the beauty is that it could run an unsigned build and view exactly where it was failing and it fixed it after a couple of tries.
Man this is INSANE!
Thank you OpenAI!
Edit: also it helps TONS to use skills! Huge if you are in the expo ecosystem. Using their official expo skill was big.
Okay straight to the point! I made an expo module for alarmkit from apple and wanted to make a dynamic island view in swift. It works BUT since im using CNG, every code change I perform to the plugin file i have to recompile the app from scratch (npx expo prebuild --clean) and honestly that is just such a deal break specially when im used to fast reload. Is this changing in the future or is it simply the way the architecture is designed to be.
Is there a demo app showcasing expo ui elements? Curious to know!
