The good news..progress has been made since last week! There are no more (blocking) ZeitSatTrack framework errors. (There are still plenty of other errors, but none that prevent the build from.. building). ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Now that is working, I can print to STDOUT a list of all amateur radio satellite TLE’s sourced from this page or…

This week and all last weekend has been … an interesting journey. Having never used any Xcode frameworks before, I elected to test out ZeitSatTrack – A Swift Satellite Tracking Library, implementing it with this term’s satellite tracking application. Little did I know, ZeitSatTrack is only compatible with Swift 3.0. Upon git cloning, I realized…

This week, I spent a large amount of time building on my existing SwiftUI project / App, “Satellite Tracker” which I was able to test both in iPhone simulator on Xcode and on my own personal iPhone 13 Pro. In my app, I built a suite of instructional content cards instructing users what the app…

There comes a time in some projects where … you invest an enormous amount of time trying to use certain frameworks, tools, resources etc to develop some X cross platform capability… only to realize 50% of the way through that X has more bugs than you imagined… Then, panic arrives. Eventually it sinks in that…

This week, was full of a non trivial number of learnings surrounding how to create an MVP app in Python… that can be later deployed / packed into an Xcode project i.e. iOS app. While going through the process of developing my final Capstone project (a satellite tracking app), I asked an iOS engineer if…

As a part of my ongoing capstone project “Satellite Tracker” (e.g. an Amateur radio satellite tracking project which will potentially use ARKit), this week I spent a lot of time on the following items: Creating my project plan Thinking about early app workflows Researching…satellite data! As it has been (literally) decades since I dabbled in…

04/07/2022 Last week, I found a project to serve as my individual capstone project a.k.a.an Amateur radio satellite tracking ARKit project. The premise of the project is “Tracking satellites with on-board ham radio capabilities is a lot of fun, but there’s no easy to use source on where to point your antenna. I’d like to…
