Big thanks to you and your DesignCode team. A big help to me. Learning design is just as important as the code that drives it. Built @getNebulaApp, using the SwiftUI courses. Essential for learning iOS and macOS app dev.

What I really like about @MengTo's SwiftUI course is how he introduces you to awesome use cases for so many of the view modifiers. While this scroll animation is straight from the course, you can imagine all the cool things you could do with it!

Simple Ratio is Live! After years of designing apps, I can finally say I built my own. Big thanks to Meng To for getting me started with SwiftUI.

If you want to make something beautiful, this is where to start. This is not a programming course, and this is not just a design course. Meng removes that line all together and simply teaches the art of making. From keyboard shortcuts to color theory, this course leaves no stone unturned. Everything you learn here you will use immediately -- there is simply no other course like this.

I've never been more excited about designing applications. Meng is by far, the best educator that I've ever found. His minimalist approach is both easy-to-understand and complete at the same time. I highly recommend!
