Twenty-two. That's how much tickets we've sold up to today. We have always been a small conference, but 22 is not enough.
So we are asking you to reply to this post: if you have been thinking about buying a ticket for Swift Island, why haven't you yet?

Last week we got a peek at what @andyorsow achieves using only two lights for his green screen studio in Oregon. Let's compare the five light setup for our projection studio in California.

Swift Island is coming again this summer, if you're looking for a nice conference on an island in the top of the Netherlands which feels more like a camp, check it out. You can get 300 euros off with this link (not an ad, just like them)

"More than just a conference" We, @nvh and @sidneydekoning (Here we are in front of the Netherlands biggest waterfall!), are working hard on Swift Islands new proposition. Bigger, better and even more awesome! #swiftisland

Swift Island is next month, a multi day conference on an island in the Netherlands focused on workshops around new WWDC announcements.
I met a lot of friends there throughout the years and the MacWhisper team (with family) will be there again this time.

⚡ Lighthouse (incorrectly) punishes preloading
If you’re like me, you probably struggled with Lighthouse scores at least once. “I already optimized everything; why is my score still yellow?”
Often, the cause is there’s more to optimize. But sometimes, it’s Lighthouse itself.

Well well well, look what we achieved in Framer – Liquid Glass Surface.
Fully customisable properties for

specular highlights
distortion=0 is basically your normal glass.
