    AI Tools for app makers

    This week’s episode discusses AI tools and their applications for developers. The hosts share their experiences using AI chatbots, highlighting their usefulness for code generation, problem-solving guidance, and code explanation. They also discuss the benefits of AI tools for finding code snippets and remembering API names. AI tools are useful for developers, especially when dealing with outdated or obscure technologies, as they can provide accurate and relevant information. While Apple’s predictive code completion in Xcode has its limitations, it is a step towards integrating AI into developer tools. However, the lack of progress on Apple’s promised chat-based tool, Swift Assist, raises concerns about Apple’s ability to compete in the rapidly evolving AI landscape.

    App Intents

    App intents can be exposed in various ways beyond shortcuts, such as custom controls, focus filters, and spotlight actions. They enable users to perform specific actions without launching the app, making them more accessible and user-friendly. App intents can also be used to configure widgets, interact with hardware, and handle preferences, providing a seamless user experience across different platforms.

    Apple iPhone 16 and what that means for developers

    In this episode of the Compile Swift Podcast, hosts Jeff and Peter discuss the recent Apple "Nine-Nine" event, discussing the latest hardware announcements and their implications for developers. They reflect on how predictable Apple's product releases have become, highlighting the incremental updates across their platforms, particularly the new iPhone's "Capture Control" feature.  The hosts explore the functionality of this new control, which allows users to adjust zoom and exposure settings directly from the side of the iPhone and how it compares to existing features like the volume button for taking photos. They also discuss the developer experience, including the built-in controls provided by Apple and the potential for creating custom controls.  Additionally, they touch on the importance of understanding user needs when integrating new features into apps and the potential for future enhancements as Apple continues to evolve its technology.  Join Geoff and Peter as they unpack these developments and share insights on how developers can leverage new tools to enhance their applications.  (00:00) - Introduction (00:08) - Apple Event - We nailed it (03:11) - A developers perspective (10:09) - Support this Podcast (22:06) - Free Coffee (27:06) - When do we embrace the new (33:47) - Support the podcast (34:05) - Rate and review Links: - Website: compileswift.com - Twitch: twitch.tv/compiledev - Geoff's site: cocoatype.com  If you found this episode helpful, please share it with someone who might benefit from it!
