An iOS Developer's Guide to SwiftUI

Part 1: Simple Views

In this part, you will be introduced to SwiftUI, the multiplatform UI framework from Apple that allows developers to build user interfaces for all Apple devices. These chapters have been designed for iOS developers in such a way that they guide you through the main concepts of SwiftUI and its practical implementation, offering a concrete base to develop powerful and visually beautiful applications.

You will start to explore the fundamentals of SwiftUI and its declarative syntax to build an intuitive and efficient UI. We’ll cover key concepts, such as views, modifiers, and state management, demonstrating how these components work together to build dynamic layouts.

You will learn to manage data well within SwiftUI, ensuring slick, dynamic user interfaces are produced through bindings, observable objects, and environment values.

This part will teach you how to work with animation and the gesture features of SwiftUI by applying them with a layer of polish and interactivity to your apps. You should reach the end of this section prepared with the knowledge and skills needed to begin using SwiftUI for your iOS development projects, making applications that are not only functional but also visually engaging.

This part contains the following chapters:

  • Chapter 1, Exploring the Environment – Xcode, Playgrounds, and SwiftUI
  • Chapter 2, Adding Basic UI Elements and Designing Layouts
  • Chapter 3, Adding Interactivity to a SwiftUI View
