    A Fancy "Popup Prize-Wheel Spinner" UIControl

  • I learned the hard way, that iconic UI is probably not the best way to go.

    But designers pretty much insist on it, these days, and fun, ensues (and sometimes, FukN sues).

    I have found the best UI, is UI that gets out of the way, and doesn't call attention to itself. There's a reason that waitstaff usually wear black.

    An example: I designed this really clever Swift UI widget (not SwiftUI)[0].

    I keep trying to use it in my projects, and keep removing it, because it's too "in your face."
