All I changed was the padding so it used our style guide. I'm a noob with animations so things like this I find it super useful for.

To make @cursor_ai easier to work with, I’ve started grouping tasks into Notepads by feature. Now, when I need a new screen for calendar sync, I can just @ the ‘calendar sync’, ‘UI changes’, & ‘data flows’ Notepads instead of juggling a ton of files.

50%+ of today's coding was with no hands 🤯 Using @WisprAI to talk to @cursor_ai on my right monitor, while Xcode is open on the left. I speak to Cursor, tweak the code, save the file, and watch Xcode’s preview update in real-time. Rinse & repeat. Game. Changer. #buildinpublic

We've started making over 1,000 api calls a day to Openai and it's only costing us around $0.15 a day! It's got so cheap that we've started using it for custom logic in our backend workflow, such as getting it to decide whether to send a certain type of notification to a user

We've been using @Superwall for nearly a year now & it's insane. The Autopilot feature is a gamechanger where you simply add in your paywalls you want to test and it keeps competing the paywalls against eachother, optimising them over time.

@jakemor Biggest one for me: if you find a feature users love but have less than 40% of users even seeing it, create a whole tab around it and put paywall access in front of it.

One tradeoff for us has been the context window which is 16k, but we're seeing if that has any negative impact on user satisfation atm. A great solution you want to compare models in prod side by side, check out @cairns 's @freeplay_ai

We just managed to reduce our OpenAI bill by 95% without compromising on quality. Because of OpenAI's latest model updates, if you're using a gpt-4 model, now is a good time see if it's worth switching to their latest 3.5 turbo model.

Give an LLM to a designer who can't code, and they take your job! @BlakeFolgado designed this screen yesterday and he also coded it up in SwiftUI using GPT4, including animations. Here's the result (code in comments). Unsure about you, but I'm impressed.

I'm terrible with animations, but luckily #GPT4 is not. I gave it the screenshot on the left and in 5 seconds it generated me the working #SwiftUI version on the right. I've found multiple times now that GPT4 is great for this use case. Prompt and code in the comments.

The only graph you want to see go down! The industry refund rate for iOS apps is 5-7%, but we’ve reduced ours to around 1% by improving the product, fixing bugs, and listening to users. Lesson: Talking to users really works! #buildinpublic #swiftui
