Built and shipped a multi‑platform app called Orbit time‑tracking app mostly in SwiftUI, with concrete workarounds: used UIViewRepresentable for crisp vectors instead of blurry SwiftUI images; overlaid a placeholder on TextEditor; replaced Picker with a NavigationLink list to add titles and remove extra space; manage multiple sheets via an enum item and present a sheet only when that case is set; prevent interactive dismissal by bridging to UIKit with isModal presentation via UIKit bridge. Also notes missing pull‑to‑refresh and advanced navigation.
