I totally missed this when it was adopted, but SE-0451 Raw Identifiers is included in Swift 6.2. Now functions/types can use (almost) any string in their name! Meaning this code is now valid:
@Test func `a readable name, yay!`() { }
It's now my favorite feature in swift 6.2. Which is very on brand for me.

I'll be speaking at One More Thing Thursday at 9:30 am pacific about What's New In Testing!
Going over all the fun new things in Swift Testing, XCTest and Automation Tests that are being included in the next release!
Here's a question;
"Am I the Only One Who Isn't Satisfied with Apple's WWDC 2025?"
I dive into the "Liquid Glass" redesign, macOS customization, and iPadOS's new windowing system. Is Apple chasing trends or redefining them? Let's discuss!

The new Apple 'Liquid Glass' thing honestly just looks like a cheap knock-off of Aero Glass, without even getting into the Accessibility issues.
I'm all for moving away from the current flat design trend, but this isn't good enough.
I see obvious issues from a contrast perspective, but also: "Liquid Glass" looks absolutely horrendous from an ADHD perspective. Yes, let's have the static part of the UI literally flash and draw attention as it remains still!
These Apple press demos are wildly distracting to my eye; I'm happy I don't use any Apple products, but don't look forward to everyone trying to copy the worst parts of this gaudy aesthetic.
I’m so proud of all the amazing work my team did this year for #wwdc2025! But perhaps the most near and dear to my heart is our rich TextEditor! @_maxobermeier and @jmschonfeld made this talk so fun along with it being the perfect getting started lesson for rich text in #SwiftUI. Don’t miss it! (And it has sample code too!!)
