Codex can algo get better at SwiftUI animations with the right skills, like the one available in the Build iOS Apps plugin. For example, ask for a scroll reveal animation!

One of the best things about this Codex app update is how good it is to work with other things than code! The app can now preview all kinds of documents natively, including spreadsheets!

So now I can self-improve the iOS app from my computer to my iPhone and deploy it. I can ask for changes and test them live. Without touching my computer. Can you believe that?

I've played a bit more with Codex + making games. This is a little Vampire Survivor inspired games, all with Codex + ImageGen and a small spec from me! CodexSurvivor!

Never forget that this is the best UX you can get because Apple can’t bother to make text selection work on SwiftUI Text.

My Codex /goal that has been running for like 40 hours that is now 100K+ lines of code now is a pure Swift Doom source port. It'll be the first, source accurate, software renderer for Doom that is fully in Swift. No OpenGL, Metal, SceneKit, no nothing. Just Swift.

So this game is real now, fully built with GPT-5.5. I told Codex to use the imagegen skill to generate a reference UI and sprites, and used the Build macOS Apps plugin to build the app for a native retro fantasy labyrinth game! Adjusted the UI in a few prompts and here we are!

Telemetry is a very important concept when working with agents; it allows them to work autonomously for longer. Watch Codex build an iOS onboarding and checkout flow, drive it using XcodeBuildMCP and debug analytics events using telemetry the agent added itself.

Let's break it down. This time, I started with an empty Xcode project. Claude 4 one-shotted a fully working iOS app that can list and create posts (with a good UX) and read/write to a database. It compiled the app and took a screenshot to confirm that it's working. One prompt.

I think you need to understand how cool and good the Codex sub-agent feature is. For example, here is the perfect task for parallel agents: cleaning and refactoring components based on a skill. So I ask Codex to split the work to speed things up.

I don't think people understand how good iPadOS 26 is or how well we have it with the SwiftUI API. TabView is now the API you want to use for your root container. It adapts almost perfectly to any window size. And it's easier than ever to make adaptable apps.

Codex Monitor now fully supports the Codex collab feature; it can spawn any number of new agents at your request. Here is a demo! Orchestration is just a prompt and a bit of UI now!

Codex with GPT-5.4 in fast mode built that in 6 minutes. Procedural world generation + rendering in an offscreen buffer, then rendering the scene in matrix-style glyph + walking around. Running in the browser.

We're definitely entering a new age of native iOS engineering. This is so much more flexible than stupid UI and rigid UI testing scripts. Next I'll try to build a new feature and tell the agent to build and run until it's working good.

It's beautiful to watch the Cursor Composer work for you. Doing the tedious work, like extracting views to their own files and making it all work together. Well, it refactored the whole file and compiled it in the end!

I'm trying something new. Here is a quick video on how I use Cursor to build and run iOS apps. Let me know if you like it.
