> Thanks to LLMs, I am now able to build iOS apps with Swift

Build iOS apps is one of the few areas where I have excitement in software engineering, and one of my biggest regrets was to get into ML/backend instead of app development.

Maybe I am 15 years behind, but the whole idea of being able to deliver something to the phone of our final customer is beyond magic for me, even working on SWE for a very long time.

Every person that has the capability to deliver something to the end user via a front-end that you can build by yourself has one of the biggest senses of agency in the SWE field in my opinion.

Relatedly, I've been using Flutter for this, it works great and the developer experience is top notch, even for iOS development, you should give it a try. Apparently 28% of all new iOS apps on the Apple App Store are actually written in Flutter, according to some independent research that was done, which is pretty wild to me considering that it feels fairly niche compared to React Native, much less native app development, but well, I guess perceptions aren't everything.
