Have you used SwiftUI successfully to build a Mac app, or have you run into similar limitations? I'd love to hear your experiences!

I go into further detail about AppKit VS SwiftUI on my blog here: https://t.co/bAzmgD8hmb

[Cole Feuer @tagavari]

My recommendation for making a Mac app in SwiftUI? Reach for AppKit.

**You can't make a good native Mac app with SwiftUI**.

Even though SwiftUI has been out for more than 4 years, apps built with it feel like an afterthought.

Even Apple agrees. Which should you use? 🧵

Going forward, I will continue to develop Mac apps in AppKit first, and only reach for SwiftUI when I know its limitations won't get in the way.

I love SwiftUI for prototyping and throwaway projects, but for the apps that I want to leave an impression, I'll stick with AppKit.

I wonder what Apple thinks of WhatsApp's icon

1Password created a site that lets users vote for services to receive Passkeys support...

and the #2 most voted service is 1Password.
