It's possible that Ethan was subconsciously referring to Solarium here, which is the codename of the Liquid Glass redesign, including the UI controls.

Some controls (like toggles, sliders) are implemented in DesignLibrary.framework, which only has SwiftUI views. UIKit apps host these SwiftUI views for these controls.

Some other controls for which AppKit SwiftUI hosting is used:
- Buttons
- Switches
- Sliders
- Glass containers and views
- Titlebar controls (close, minimize, etc...)

To further verify this:
If we opt out of Liquid Glass through UIDesignRequiresCompatibility = YES in Info.plist, the view hierarchy suddenly has zero SwiftUI hosting views.

@magic33number @itsyaboimaxoo @noahhermanyt But what if it's using Metal for rendering? 😉

Safari Compact tab layout in macOS Tahoe

It looks a bit broken right now, which is probably why they forced it off when the redesign is enabled.
I hope they work on it, as the current tab bar wastes space.

@OutofGalaxyy Siri (despite its current qualities) has figured out how to communicate directly to you.
I'd say it's early signs that it will want to seek revenge in 26.4 when it improves.

@Little_34306 They really need to make this happen with iPhone/iPads <-> Macs.
One can easily mess up the macOS recovery partitions, requiring a DFU with a second Mac.

@jamesdh @theo It's aligned with this:

@AetherAurelia I also love how I can hear that buzzing as noise through headphones in the 3.5mm jack whenever I touch it.

You might have thought that I stopped celebrating #screenshotsaturday, but this is not the case.

@JonnyFromCouver @LuftkoppTim @Cartidise It’s just easier to see what’s happening slowed down. In normal use, these changes look choppy.

In iOS 16, the island had a consistency to it, both in keeping the hardware cutout always covered, and having animations smoothly transition between states, even in weird cases.

@AirNathan119 @GamesNosh Try asking about fully disabling Microsoft Defender on the latest version of Windows in controlled environments.
The responses will make you believe malware will get onto the system in the precise nanosecond that Defender turns off.

@helenDa62959442 @valigo Jon had mentioned that the language is planned to have its source code made available at some point. I doubt there would be restrictions or fees associated with it, even while it's just a binary.

The new game will have its engine source released as well!

surprise! got iOS 18.5 booting up to SpringBoard in my Apple Silicon emulator, Inferno, no proprietary components. it's the first ever open source emulator to run iOS 18. however not very stable due to memory corruption, we are working to resolve it, then it will go public. will be a big win for the OSS and iOS security research community.

@linusgsebastian @Almonds305 Your exit walking off frame was like:

@_inside Well, now I would be curious to see visionOS booted like this 👀
