Ziga Dolar @zigadolar.com · Jun 14 I wanted to have some dynamic web data in a widget on my home screen. My first thought was to build a bespoke app for a specific rest api just for myself. (1/2) #buildInPublic #dev #iOS #swiftUI #widgets

Totally get that instinct — then halfway through you realize a generic widget engine would've been smarter from the start 😄
But wouldn't it be nicer to have an app that can take any URL and make it fit different types of widgets easily. From JSON, XML, images - anything one could want to have a "realtime" dashboard on the phone. First prototype already working 🥳 Would anyone else find something like this useful? (2/2)
