About

A place for real apps, useful implementation notes, and the journey beyond iOS.

IT Works On My Mac is where I share my apps, Swift implementations, product decisions, and the wider technical journey around them.

What this site is for

A public workshop for apps, implementation notes, and the journey beyond iOS.

I created this site to publish real apps, explain the engineering behind them, keep changelogs, document experiments, and share the process of growing from mobile development into web, services, automation, APIs, AI-assisted workflows, and the wider world of tech.

Drive

Useful first.

I like building products from real pressure, not abstract ideas. If a tool helps me move better, think clearer, or keep a habit alive, it is worth shaping carefully.

Craft

Native and calm.

The details matter: quick flows, useful defaults, strong architecture, clear hierarchy, and the small pieces of polish that make an app feel trustworthy.

Goal

Build, learn, share.

This site is a public record of the work: shipped apps, implementation notes, changelogs, experiments, and lessons from expanding beyond mobile.

Why FoodieCalc exists

Nutrition goals needed a better tool.

FoodieCalc started from a personal need. I am keen on nutrition and fitness, and I wanted a better way to support my nutrition and gym goals with the same care I expect from good native software.

I did not want a tracker that felt like a spreadsheet in disguise. I wanted something fast, approachable, well designed, and genuinely useful for calories, macros, meals, weight progress, widgets, barcode lookup, and quick logging.

The wider path

A workshop window, not just a portfolio.

The site gives the work a home outside the App Store: product pages, release notes, architecture writeups, experiments, and the practical lessons that appear while building.

My work starts with iOS, but the journey keeps widening: SwiftUI, SwiftData, widgets, AI-assisted workflows, web, infrastructure, automation, APIs, and the practical decisions that connect them.

Intent

Build the thing I would actually use, then make it good enough to share.

The name has a joke inside it, but the work is serious: thoughtful products, high functionality, strong design, and user experiences that respect the person on the other side of the screen.
