Building a Kid-Safe Coloring Book App with Claude as Pair Programmer
A Reddit user built a safe, ad-free coloring book app for kids using SwiftUI and Claude as a pair programmer. The app, called Imagine: Coloring for Kids, is now on the App Store.
Key Details
- Built entirely in SwiftUI with SwiftData for local persistence.
- Image generation via an API, but all data stays on-device.
- Robust parent protection: purchase links, external links, and terms page are locked behind a parent gate.
- The app intentionally feels calm and simple — no ads, no overstimulation.
- The developer used Claude as a pair programmer throughout the build process.
- Available on iOS: App Store link.
- The developer offers free access to families in need — contact via Reddit.
Who It's For
