Swift Codex is a blog about iOS and macOS development. There are multiple articles, focusing on Swift, SwiftUI and UIKit.

Documentation with Visual Examples

My motivation to create this blog was that the official Apple Developer documentation lacks visuals. I wanted to see how a certain code snippet or view looks without always having to run a sample app in Xcode.

For SwiftUI views there are no images in the official documentation. Often the documentation lacks explanations. The definition of a component is there, but there are no examples or use-cases. It's overly technical and "raw".

Swift Codex changes that. Articles feature code alongside images and videos, making it easy to visualize the results without running the code.

Cross-Platform Coverage: iOS and macOS

Most articles around SwiftUI cover only iOS development. There are few tutorials out there that cover macOS too, and even those focus mostly on one platform while leaving out the other.

Swift Codex covers both iOS and macOS in the same articles. Because a lot of things exist in both platforms, it's easier to see the similarities and differences when they're side-by-side.

Learn and Share

I hope you (the reader) learn something and this blog helps you on your journey.

Knowledge is best when it's shared. If you like an article or the blog itself, feel free to share it with others (friends, colleagues, etc.).

Enjoy the blog!
