Ios Design Consultant
Before you write a single line of SwiftUI, ask this skill where that button should go or whether your sheet decision follows HIG. It's a design consultant for Apple's Liquid Glass system (iOS 26+) that answers positioning, layout, and visual hierarchy questions with actual rationale, not just opinions. The anti-patterns table alone will save you from glass-on-content-cards mistakes and other common fumbles. Think of it as having an Apple designer review your layout decisions. It won't write code, just tell you what belongs where and why, which honestly should happen first anyway.
