SwiftUI Weekly - Issue #80

Update your apps to use new features, and test your apps against API changes.

One of the new container views delivered in SwiftUI Release 3 was the ControlGroup view. The ControlGroup view displays semantically-related controls in a visually appropriate manner for the context. This week we will learn how to use and customize the appearance of the ControlGroup view in SwiftUI.

An exploration of an important pattern used throughout SwiftUI.

A look at what we’ve lost going from UIFont to SwiftUI and what it takes to get it back.

User’s location is probably the most sought out permission after notifications but its also the most sensitive piece of information. Over the years, Apple has invested lots of time to make sure that user’s information is not shared without their knowledge.

SwiftUI 3 introduced a brand spanking new view called ✨ Canvas ✨ for rich and dynamic 2D graphics drawing.

Introduced in iOS 15 and SwiftUI 3, foregroundStyle is a new modifier which can be used to apply color or pattern as foreground to view. This modifier can be applied to style content of text, shapes, symbols, images etc.

In this episode, we’re going to finish recreating the shapes and views from the official Apple tutorial on drawing paths and shapes using PureSwiftUI in an exercise to see the improvements we can make. I think the result will surprise you!

In this project we take a close look at how views and view modifiers work in SwiftUI.
