 # MapLibre Newsletter - September 2024
 
-## SwiftUI DSL

-MapLibre has a new hosted project: the [SwiftUI DSL for MapLibre native](https://github.com/maplibre/swiftui-dsl)! Originally started by Ian Wagner from [Stadia Maps](https://stadiamaps.com/), the goal of the project is to give MapLibre developers on iOS an experience that rivals the latest MapKit for SwiftUI APIs.

-[Jacob Fielding](https://github.com/archdoog) ([Rallista](https://rallista.app/)), [Patrick Wolowicz](https://subzero.eu/) and [Patrick Kladek](https://github.com/Patrick-Kladek) ([HudHud](https://hudhud.sa/en)) shared the same vision, and have each contributed significantly to the ongoing development over the last year. This is a great example of the collaboration that MapLibre seeks to enable across the industry, and the authors are excited to have the project officially hosted under the MapLibre organization.
+We’re delighted to begin the September newsletter with a heartfelt THANK YOU to Microsoft for their unwavering support as a sponsor of MapLibre in 2024!
