what's cool

Apple's WWDC events often showcase a variety of exciting new features and technologies. Here are some of the cool highlights from recent sessions:

1. SwiftUI Enhancements: SwiftUI has introduced new APIs and capabilities, such as custom container views, improved windowing, and more control over input methods. These enhancements make it easier to create dynamic and engaging user interfaces across Apple's platforms. For example, you can now create custom visual effects and animations, which are great for crafting unique app experiences. What’s new in SwiftUI

2. Liquid Glass Design: A new design material called Liquid Glass has been introduced, which combines the optical qualities of glass with fluidity. This material is used across various components, creating a more dynamic and visually appealing experience. It adapts to the content underneath, changing from light to dark, and is part of a broader design update across iOS and macOS. Meet Liquid Glass

3. SF Symbols and Animations: New symbol effects like wiggle, rotate, and breathe have been added, along with playback options for these animations. These effects can make app icons and symbols more expressive and engaging. What’s new in AppKit

4. RealityKit and SwiftUI Integration: The integration between SwiftUI and RealityKit has been enhanced, allowing for easier coordinate space conversion and the ability to drive RealityKit component changes with SwiftUI animations. This makes it simpler to incorporate 3D models and animations into apps. Better together: SwiftUI and RealityKit

These updates reflect Apple's ongoing commitment to enhancing the developer experience and enabling the creation of more immersive and personalized apps.
