Beyond buttons – using advanced pickers

In this recipe, we will learn how to implement pickers—namely, Picker, Toggle, Slider, Stepper, and DatePicker. Pickers are typically used to prompt the user to select from a set of mutually exclusive values. Toggle views are used to switch between on/off states. Slider views are used for selecting a value from a bounded linear range of values. As with Slider views, Stepper views also provide a UI for selecting from a range of values. However, steppers use the + and – signs to allow users to increment the desired value by a certain amount. Finally, DatePicker views are used for selecting dates.
