Lucas van Dongen - Swift developer @lucasvandongen.dev · 07/09/2026German mainstream politics is also lost. Closing nuclear reactors so they can destroy their own industry at the expense of burning more coal and Russian gas. Immigration politics are not widely supported yet all parties stick to them. There should be some fresh ideas apart from far left or right. 020

Reposted by Lucas van Dongen - Swift developerNatalia Panferova @natpanferova.bsky.social · 05/08/2026Alignment guides are a powerful but often underused part of SwiftUI's layout system. They let us describe relationships between views using meaningful points in their content, without frame measurements or fixed offsets. I wrote a post explaining them in detail: nilcoalescing.com/blog/Alignme...nilcoalescing.comAlignment guides in SwiftUILearn how alignment guides position views in SwiftUI, how to override a built-in guide, and how to define a custom alignment for views in nested containers. 1144
