Any recommendations for handwriting recognition for Apple Pencil w/ swift?

  You could wait until iOS 14. It's a rumoured SDK feature. https://www.macrumors.com/2020/03/09/ios-14-ocr-apple-pencil-text-conversion/ https://www.macrumors.com/2020/03/09/ios-14-ocr-apple-pencil... > iOS 14 may include a new PencilKit feature that will allow you to handwrite text in any text input field using Apple Pencil, with the handwritten content then converted into standard text before it's sent > It looks like third-party apps will also be able to access a PencilKit tool that will support some kind of new handwriting functionality, but the extent of it is unclear.

Really awesome write up. I personally would love to start building native Swift apps, but honestly Swift (although I’ve heard it looks much better than Objective C) looks so incredibly involved. For now I guess I’ll stick to react native

  FTA: ”I don’t like using storyboards myself, so the app in this tutorial is built programmatically, which means no buttons or switches to toggle — just pure code“ Most of the boilerplate parts of the code can be done in a GUI, instead. Also, I think this program requires hardware that’s new enough to support the iOS version that supports SwiftUI. If so, SwiftUI would be the better choice for building this UI.

  I suggest you take a look at SwiftUI. IMO it’s much nicer to work with than react

  Swift is probably the easiest language I came across, it's a mix of python and C++. Nothing to be impressed here, if you're already doing well using rn, swift is much easier! Thanks for the love

    Thanks for the response. Any good resources on picking up Swift?

Really cool stuff. Is there something out there to replace background in a camera feed?
