Learn Liquid Glass
Read full descriptionHide full description
Learn Liquid Glass is a focused reference and learning app for developers working with SwiftUIβs Liquid Glass design system. Explore more than 50 guided lessons and 200+ working examples you can open, adjust with live controls, and copy the Swift from β on iPhone, iPad and Mac. See Liquid Glass against real photography and artwork. The live examples use varied colour, texture and detail to demonstrate refraction, contrast and legibility more clearly than flat placeholder backgrounds. Share an individual example page when you find something useful, making it easier to save an idea or send a technique to another developer. The library is organized by task: glass foundations, controls, navigation and system chrome, interaction and motion, platform APIs, shipping quality, and reference. Every example pairs a live interaction with its source, the frameworks it uses, and the OS versions it needs. Learn current material guidance β where Liquid Glass belongs on the control layer and where standard materials belong in the content layer β alongside iOS 27 additions including adaptive toolbars, minimized tab bars, bottom accessories and scroll edge effects. Liquid AI provides optional on-device help for explanations and Swift code ideas when Apple Intelligence is available on your device. Prompts and code are processed on-device and are not sent to external servers. Everything works offline. No account, no tracking.
FrankenCA
Read full descriptionHide full description
Touch a living lattice and watch local rules become motion, structure, transport, and surprise. FrankenCA contains nineteen cellular-automata systems rendered through a native Metal pipeline. Move quickly between automata, run them full screen, reseed or mutate a field, and open the full lab when you want direct control over the active system. The collection spans continuous morphogenesis, transport, topology, spin systems, geometry, bifurcations, and quantum-inspired dynamics. Each automaton has its own visual language and parameter set instead of sharing a cosmetic preset. The native theory atlas explains the governing state, update rule, and important parameters with proper mathematical notation, diagrams, tables, and process views. The equations and simulations are bundled with the app and remain available offline. FrankenCA has no account, advertising, tracking, web view, or cloud computation. Simulation state and gestures stay on the device.
