Solo Swift Crafter

I’m Daniel a solo indie iOS developer building SwiftUI apps in public. I use AI like Claude Code, Cursor, and GPT to move fast, test ideas, and actually ship.

On this channel you’ll find real-time devlogs, tutorials, and honest breakdowns of the indie dev journey — from design, to coding in Xcode, to the stumbles and “aha!” moments along the way.

I’m not here to be a guru — I’m here to show the real indie dev journey: designing, coding, breaking things, fixing them, and shipping apps one step at a time.

If you’re learning SwiftUI, building your first app, or just curious how AI is changing the way we code — hit subscribe and come build with me. 🚀

No paywall. No gatekeeping.
Just builders hanging out, sharing SwiftUI progress, indie struggles, AI workflows, all that good stuff.

🎉 We just hit 5,000 subscribers.

That’s kinda wild… honestly didn’t expect this when I started 😅

I’m opening Crafter’s Lab Discord to everyone for one week.

If you’ve been watching the videos quietly, lurking, or thinking “maybe I should join” yeah… this is the moment.

After that, it goes back to being private again.
Seriously, thank you for supporting the channel, the ideas, and the craft.
Let’s keep building.

🚀 New Category Dropped: Claude Code Skills 
www.crafterslab.dev/resources

Ever wish Claude Code just got you—without all the context-dumping, screenshots, or endless prompting?

I just made that possible.

8 years of my own dev experience, turned into reusable /skill patterns Claude understands instantly.
One skill = instant shared understanding = pro-quality results without the hassle.
No more re-explaining. No more “please do it like this.”
Just pick a skill, adapt, and go.

🔒 This catalog is now live for Crafter’s Lab members only.
I’ll be posting new skills daily this month.

If you want faster results (and to skip hours of prompt-wrangling),

A quick solo dev reality check, why picking the right iOS target version in Xcode can make or break your app’s early growth. Ship faster, reach more users, and stop overbuilding for the latest SDK before you even launch.

Solo Dev Mindset shows why every project needs a Mindset.md a small doc that teaches your AI tools how you think, what you value, and what to never build.

Solo Swift Crafter

A practical walkthrough on how to organize SwiftUI projects for solo devs showing why MVVM doesn’t fit modern SwiftUI, how Apple’s samples do it better, and how to keep your AI coding agents working with you, not against you.

No buzzwords, no overengineering just the real workflow I use to make Claude Code and Cursor feel like teammates instead of tools.
