WWDC 2020 has ended. As usually, Apple introduced a lot of new things during the conference. They include the transition from Intel chips to ARMs, new iMacs, new OSs. One of the most expected announcements also happened: SwiftUI 2.0. Let's discover if there is anything new in this version of SwiftUI, which starts to mature nicely.
It has been almost a year since SwiftUI was introduced at WWDC. We've tried SwiftUI for a few months now, and even built a premium fitness app just with SwiftUI. Unfortunately, after this adventure, we've decided, as a team, to not pursue SwiftUI apps any further. The framework is simply not ready for complex apps, and, to be honest, this should be embarrassing for Apple, given how low the quality bar was for this launch.
Although it's undeniable that SwiftUI has made breakthroughs in redefining how to build an iOS app, it still has difficulties building a real application which can get quite complex. Also, while SwiftUI is still a kid – we have to accept some issues as well as use hacky solutions and hope it gets better in the next releases.
While working on the SwiftUI Chat tutorial, we ran into the issue of handling the keyboard animations by adjusting the layout of all the views visible on the screen, depending on whether the keyboard is visible or not. In this tutorial, we are going to learn how to handle the keyboard animations in SwiftUI with the help of ObservedObject.
Hey everyone, in this article, we are going to learn how to build custom reusable components with ViewModifier, and how to create base views with ViewBuilder. These are powerful mechanisms to implement gorgeous design systems that are consistent across the entire app and that encourage code reusability and good architectural patterns.
In this iOS tutorial, we are going to learn how to implement a tab bar in SwiftUI by leveraging TabView. Feel free to skip directly to the source code (at the bottom of the page), if you already know what you're doing.
Hello, welcome back to our SwiftUI tutorials series. In this article, we are going to learn how to use the photo camera and library picker in SwiftUI to take photos within our iOS apps – a feature that nearly every mobile application needs nowadays, especially with the latest iPhone release, that has 3 cameras!
In this article we will talk about @EnvironmentObject in SwiftUI and how to use it to handle certain state management situations within our iOS applications.
When you start developing with SwiftUI, you will reach certain points during development where you would like to use some APIs from UIKit. In order to integrate UIKit with SwiftUI, you can use one of two protocols – UIViewControllerRepresentable and UIViewRepresentable. We will soon be migrating all of our iPhone app templates (currently running on UIKit) to SwiftUI, so having them use both UIKit and SwiftUI as a transition state during migration will be a huge advantage in order to not block our customers who are willing to take a stab at SwiftUI early on (even if we don’t recommend it yet!).
SwiftUI is a newly released framework to help iOS developers build user interfaces across all Apple platforms with the power of Swift. SwiftUI has been launched at WWDC 2019 and has been increasing in popularity exponentially ever since. SwiftUI addresses the major pain points that iOS engineers were facing with building interfaces, and for these reasons, SwiftUI is the future of front-end development on iOS. We are making a quick introduction to SwiftUI to highlight its simplistic yet powerful paradigm.
