is a news editor with over a decade’s experience in journalism. He previously worked at Android Police and Tech Advisor.
Sun Day is available now for iOS via TestFlight, and the code for the project is available on GitHub. The app uses location-based data to display your local UV index and sunlight hours. You can detail your skin type and clothing level, then manually toggle when you’re in and out of the sun and the app will track your rough vitamin D levels for the day, along with how long you can be in direct sunlight without burning.
Dorsey says he’s “learning” through his recent weekend coding projects, which he’s developing using the open-source AI coding tool Goose.
