Calendar app — iOS first build (2026-04-18)
First implementation session of the calendar app that would become Hibi (working name at this point: “Karl”).
So today I started implementing a calendar app for iOS and I probably want to publish macOS version 2. Uh it’s looking pretty nice so far, so it has some nice gestures and some vertical scrolling so that the user can use the app nicely and the design is also very nice. I experimented a bit with Claude code and Claude Design which came out yesterday and it worked surprisingly well.
Takeaways
- Vertical scrolling + gestures land the core interaction feel.
- Claude Code + Claude Design combo worked “surprisingly well” for SwiftUI iteration — worth noting as a general finding for iOS solo dev.
- macOS version intended as a follow-up; see 2026-04-18-Cross-platform calendar app.
