MotionScape with Amos Gyamfi

The Developers' Bakery

It’s time to talk again about beautiful UI animations, but this time for iOS 🍎!

It’s my pleasure to have Amos Gyamfi on stage to talk about MotionScape.

Amos has a long history of building animations for iOS, and today he’s with us to talk about the challenges of building animation. Thanks to MotionScape, you can easily preview and customize your animations on desktop and get the SwiftUI code to run it in your iOS app.

Enjoy the show 👨‍🍳
