Type-Safe SwiftUI Navigation: Building a Better NavigationStack with NavigationPilot

divyesh vekariya — Sat, 11 Apr 2026 07:00:00 +0000

SwiftUI’s `NavigationStack` is great… until you build a real app.

Type-erased NavigationPath
No popTo or replace
Navigation logic scattered across views

So I built NavigationPilot — a ~100-line, type-safe navigation layer.

It gives you:

Strongly-typed routes
Full stack control (push / pop / replace)
Clean, scalable architecture

All using native SwiftUI.

The Complete Senior iOS Developer Interview Guide (2026)— Part 2

*While preparing for senior iOS interviews, I noticed something:
*
Most resources stop at basics.

But actual interviews go deeper —
They test how you think about trade-offs, performance, and architecture.

So I wrote a guide covering topics like:

Swift internals & type system
Concurrency edge cases
SwiftUI rendering behavior
Modular architecture & testing
Real-world memory pitfalls

Would love feedback from other iOS devs 👇

The Complete Senior iOS Developer Interview Guide (2026)

divyesh vekariya — Sat, 28 Mar 2026 08:35:39 +0000

After years of building iOS apps and participating in interview processes, I realized something important:

Senior interviews aren’t about memorizing answers. They’re about how you think.

Most developers prepare by revising concepts, APIs, and common questions. That’s useful—but it’s not enough at the senior level.

What interviewers really look for is:

Your ability to explain why you made certain decisions
How you evaluate trade-offs in architecture and design
Whether you can identify edge cases and hidden pitfalls
How clearly you communicate complex ideas

This is what separates a senior engineer from a mid-level one.

What’s inside:

Real-world interview questions
Deep explanations (not just definitions)
Common mistakes and how to avoid them
System-level thinking and decision-making

💡 Disclaimer: This is based on my personal experience and is not affiliated with any company.

If you're preparing for senior iOS roles, I hope this helps you think more clearly and approach interviews with confidence.

Would love to hear your thoughts—what do you think is the hardest part of senior-level interviews?

Building QR Code Generator and Scanner with SwiftUI

Mastering QR Code Generation & Scanning in SwiftUI

🔲 QR codes look simple. But they’re powerful.

Most apps treat QR as just another feature.

I recently built a QR Code Generator & Scanner in SwiftUI — and it reminded me that QR is not a UI component…

It’s an offline data bridge.

Here’s what’s actually happening:

Text → Encoded using Core Image → Rendered as QR → Scanned via AVFoundation → Decoded instantly → Triggers real app behavior

That means QR can power:

Offline authentication
Secure device pairing
Payment flows
Deep linking
Data sharing without internet

The most interesting part?
iOS does the heavy lifting — you just need to structure the pipeline correctly.

*I wrote a detailed breakdown of the full generation & scanning architecture here *👇

If you're building QR-based features (payments, login, pairing), I’d love to exchange ideas.

Is Native iOS Development with Swift Still Worth It in 2025?

divyesh vekariya — Wed, 15 Oct 2025 14:30:00 +0000

Focused on creating a high‑quality iOS app and want the best performance and tightest integration? I came across this article: Swift vs. Kotlin vs. Flutter in App Development: What to Choose?

After reading, I’m convinced that Swift is still the safest bet for a truly polished iOS app. Key reasons:

Maximum performance and responsiveness on iOS

Full access to latest Apple APIs/features

Strong support and stability from Apple

But is going native (Swift) justifiable when cross‑platform tools are so mature now? Would you pick Swift over Flutter (or Kotlin) if your app is iOS‑only?

What’s your take — is native iOS via Swift still the gold standard in 2025?

Thinking of building a mobile app for both iOS and Android?

After reading it, I’m leaning heavily toward Flutter.
Why? Because:

One single codebase saves time and effort

Strong UI capabilities and flexibility

Good balance between cost and speed to market

Performance almost like native(For simple app without core api)

But is Flutter really good enough compared to native iOS/Android now?
Or are there critical trade‑offs (performance, native API access) that make it risky for some projects?

What do you think — for a cross‑platform mobile app in 2025, would you choose Flutter, or go native instead?

How to Build Rich Text Editor in SwiftUI

divyesh vekariya — Mon, 06 Oct 2025 06:23:14 +0000

Building a Rich Text Editor in SwiftUI (with iOS 26 APIs)

I am spending weekends exploring new iOS features — and this time, I went deep into the latest SwiftUI text APIs in iOS 26. The goal? To build a fully native Rich Text Editor — no UIKit, no hacks, just clean SwiftUI.

Apple’s new text stack has evolved a lot — with AttributedString, AttributedTextSelection, and transformAttributes(in:), it’s finally possible to manage styles like bold, italic, and underline directly in SwiftUI while keeping everything performant and elegant.

In my full article, I dive into how to:
✅ Build toolbar actions for bold, italic, underline
✅ Keep toolbar state synced with selection
✅ Handle serialization for saving styled text

It’s amazing how much cleaner things have become with the new APIs — definitely one of my favorite updates in iOS 26.
