"Complex workflows in compact form" A visual introduction to the new Linear Mobile app by @Gavmn.

@Dimillian We had the same crash. I traced it down to users who were on an older iOS 18 beta (I believe beta 4) when running against the app compiled with Xcode 16 RC.

Tell me this is why Apple pulled the RC release of Xcode and released a new final version.

@johnmalatras @alexcornell Back at ya, man!

Still can’t believe I get to work with @pixelmatrix and @alexcornell every day. The details 🤌

@OsterbergJordan I’ll have to break this down in another thread sometime! It’s a little too much to explain in a single tweet 😄

@pixelmatrix How did you pull off the player/tab bar transition? Been dying to know since I saw Alex’s thread! 😅

Here’s a little behind the scenes from building out the @Substack player in Swift. An earlier version of the design had these pinned section headers that were quite challenging to get right. The contents of the section get masked as they scroll behind the header. 🧵

Under the hood it's implemented with a parent view controller that inspects the frames of its children, determines which one intersects with the status bar at a given time, and delegates the status bar control between the children.
