What problem does it solve?
Adopting Apple's new Liquid Glass design material for iOS 26 and later Apple platforms requires avoiding common anti-patterns, performance pitfalls, and migration errors that can break app UIs or cause frame drops. This Skill eliminates guesswork by providing vetted, production-ready guidance for correct implementation across all Apple development frameworks.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Cross-framework implementation: Full guidance for applying Liquid Glass in SwiftUI, UIKit, AppKit, and WidgetKit, including API mappings and platform-specific best practices.
- Migration support: Step-by-step two-phase strategy for updating existing apps to the iOS 26 SDK, with deprecation replacement tables, backward compatibility wrappers, and a readiness checklist.
- Design-to-code translation: Mapping between Figma's iOS 26 Liquid Glass component library and production SwiftUI code, plus corner radius, control size, and visual property reference tables.
- Use case example: A team updating their iOS productivity app to iOS 26 can use this Skill to automatically adopt Liquid Glass for standard controls, implement custom floating chrome without performance issues, and pass App Store review with the new design requirements.
Quick Start
Use the liquid-glass skill to add a correctly implemented custom floating action button with Liquid Glass to your iOS 26 SwiftUI app, following the provided design rules to avoid visual glitches and performance problems.
