The National Day and Mid-Autumn Festival holiday is about to end, and it's been a while since my last essay. In recent days, I have been continuing the development process while also expending considerable effort to deal with various bugs and anomalies in iOS 14.
This week, I haven't had much energy or mood for coding. Over the last few days, building on the unified sheet management and real-time Form base, I completed a Sheet that can control the cancel gesture. This has been a significant missing feature in SwiftUI for a long time.
Due to a family member's sudden illness, I have been frequently visiting the hospital recently, which has significantly limited my time for development.
Due to other miscellaneous matters this week, I could only guarantee about 2-3 hours per day for development, so there hasn't been much progress. However, fortunately, I don't have any explicit progress targets.
Health Notes has been online since January 2020, and now more than half a year has passed. During this period, I have gained further understanding and knowledge of Swift, SwiftUI, CoreData, etc. Most of the issues and uncertainties I faced during the development of version 1.0 have been resolved.
