Views are the heart and soul of building user interfaces in SwiftUI. To help keep things organized, group views into categories based on their primary jobs. Here’s a sneak peek at some of the most common categories you’ll encounter:
Layout Views
These help you arrange and position other views. Think of them as organizing shelves, helping you neatly place images, text, and buttons exactly where you want them. Examples include:
Control Views
These let the user interact with your app. Controls also need to be large enough for people to accurately click or tap. They empower users to tap to start a level in a game, adjust their music volume, or toggle settings on and off. Examples include:
Text Views
These specialize in displaying text. They display everything from simple welcome messages to detailed instructions or even the high scores in your game. Examples include:
