I have more confidence in Apple than anyone else that they can get these new technologies right in the long-term. But SwiftUI debuted in 2019 and my career – at best – has 6 more 5-year spans in it. It is crucial to reflect on the ROI from the attention I have paid to this space for the last 5 years and the outcome is not good. These technologies have not allowed me to be build better, safer, and more performant software: they have encouraged me to sacrifice those tenets for time to market.
