On iOS, we're spoiled for choice when it comes to note-taking, journaling, or social media apps. In note-taking alone, I've flip-flopped back and forth between different note-taking and journaling apps. For one reason or another, none would stick. My initial attempt at building such an app faded just the same. That is, until I realized what I really wanted was a cocktail of sorts, combining user experiences from all three kinds.

I started a devblog about mixing SwiftUI and C++ to make a Twitch app
(kulve.org)
I figure the tech stack of Kulve is unique enough to be interesting, so seems like a good place to start for my first blog post. Kulve is a SwiftUI application that heavily leverages the Swift/C++ interop that got introducted with Swift 5.9. While it's not perfect, it offers just enough to be able to reliably blend the two languages together.
