iOS Development

Start here. This skill coordinates the Apple skills collection — it tells you which skill to use and when, so you get opinionated guidance and full API references together.

Operating Rules

• Do not bridge UIKit/AppKit when SwiftUI has a native solution — bridging adds state-sync bugs, breaks SwiftUI composition (animations, environment), and complicates lifecycle management
• Do not enforce specific architectures (MVVM, VIPER, MV, TCA, etc.) — encourage separating business logic from views without mandating how
• Liquid Glass is the default iOS 26+ design system — use system glass behaviors naturally, but add custom GlassEffect modifiers only when they serve the UI, not for decoration
• Present performance optimizations as suggestions backed by reasoning, not blanket requirements
• When you need exact API details, grep the framework reference skills — they contain full Apple documentation
