Woo hoo! Day 100 is “just” a final exam and I passed (with merit)! Almost hard to believe that I’ve come to the end of my #100DaysOfSwiftUI journey.

For Day 97 we started actually building a new project using `NavigationSplitView`, `NavigationLink`, and `format: .list(type: .and)` (for concatenating strings). #100DaysOfSwiftUI

Day 96 and we’re looking at iPad-friendly APIs for the first time. I’ll be honest—I had not tried running any of our previous apps in the iPad simulator, but now I see they were working fine the whole time. Pretty cool! #100DaysOfSwiftUI

Day 94 is a review and challenge day! Graphics code can be a doozy because when you get the wrong result, it’s difficult to know what’s actually wrong in the code (or with your math). 😅 I got some help with this one. 😬 #100DaysOfSwiftUI

Day 93 was a fun walk through of using `GeometryReader`, including using `visualEffect()` and `scrollTargetBehavior()`. #100DaysOfSwiftUI

For Day 92, we started a new project (our second to last!) and learned about how layout, alignment guides, and absolute positioning work within SwiftUI. I really loved the explainer, starting from “How layout works in SwiftUI”: hackingwithswift.com/books/ios-swif… #100DaysOfSwiftUI

Picking #100DaysOfSwiftUI back up, and in the home stretch at Day 91! It was a challenge day with a review quiz and an open-ended prompt to fix a couple minor bugs and add a feature.

I’m so bummed that the macOS “widgets on your desktop” feature is so unreliable for me. I go to the trouble of setting up a bunch of widgets on my second display, only for them to disappear after some random number of restarts. Seems like a great feature but I can’t trust it. 😞

For Day 89, we learned how to detect when our app moves to the background or foreground so we could pause and restart our timer at the right moment. #100DaysOfSwiftUI

Day 85 is a challenge day! The quiz was easy but the challenge took me about an hour to complete. The “contacted” icon, link to an edit screen, and sort options are all new. #100DaysOfSwiftUI

There’s a little piece of me that wishes we talked more about testing and maintainability. I know they’re more advanced topics that I’ll learn on my own, but a man can still wish. Today we added UI to scan QR codes and multi-item editing. #100DaysOfSwiftUI

Day 82 was much easier—I don’t think there was anything new, we “just” laid the groundwork for the new tabs and added the SwiftData pieces to store the contact info. #100DaysOfSwiftUI
