Hello and welcome to another blog post about SwiftUI animations. In the previous post dedicated mainly to AnimatableData, we have constructed AnimatableVector that allowed us to create animatable charts. Today we will utilize the same class for morphing shapes. Shape representation Shapes in SwiftUI can be constructed as a composition of vector paths and/or shape […]

Prerequisite Before starting, if you are not too familiar with MVVM […]
Hello and welcome to another blog post about SwiftUI. This time, we will talk about the animation of complex shapes in SwiftUI. You will understand animatableData property and will be able to implement animatable custom Shape struct that depends on multiple parameters. AnimatableData Animating simple shapes is easy thanks to animatableData property. We have seen […]
Accessibility is important. We can take that as a given. But as iOS devs we’re not always sure how to make the most of the accessibility tools that Apple have provided us. We’re lucky as iOS developers that we work on such a forward-thinking accessibility platform. Many people consider Apple’s focus on accessibility for iOS […]
Semantic views are not new to SwiftUI, but changes in SwiftUI mean creating them is simple. Semantic views are not so much a language feature. They’re more a technique for manipulating the accessible user interface and improving the experience for assistive technology users. A what view? A semantic view is not one view, but a collection […]
SwiftUI allows us to read environmental values that might affect how we want to present our UI. Things like size classes and locale for example. We also get the ability to read some of the user’s chosen accessibility settings allowing us to make decisions that will best fit with your customer’s preference. Why? Before we […]
