Path functions in SwiftUI

In the new SwiftUI Views Mastery book I have expanded the Path section with all available path functions. I was a little intimidated at first with creating custom shapes but now I have a lot of fun creating them! They are super useful and versatile.

New Book: SwiftUI Animations! For FREE!

This Unique Book Will Make You a Master at SwiftUI Animations

I'm excited to announce a new free book sample called "SwiftUI Animations".

This is a textbook. That means it's structured a little different than SwiftUI Views.

Each chapter is formatted like this:

• Teach related concepts using video and code
• Take you through a practical exercise on building an animation
• Summary
• Check your understanding with some questions
• Challenges to see if you can reproduce an animation
• Teach and Share - It's been shown that you can retain up to 90% of what you learn when you teach it.

Each Concept has video and code

This will really help the concepts sink in and help you find the effects you want to reproduce and learn from.

I wanted to make this book as simple and easy to learn from as possible with very little "fluff" and talking. I get straight to the point.

SwiftUI: ToggleStyle - The Completely Customized Toggle

To completely customize the #SwiftUI Toggle view's colors, you're going to have to reconstruct it. I show you one way to do this in the SwiftUI Views book.

In the example above, I'm using a custom ToggleStyle (ColoredToggleStyle) that reconstructs the Toggle view so I can customize the colors any way I want.

My patrons have access to the full code.

SwiftUI: TextField Alignment

I had someone ask about aligning text within a TextField view and I didn't have a page in my book for this but added one just now.

I've been adding pages and updates. I'll try to get a new copy up on the site tonight: https://www.bigmountainstudio.com/swiftui-views-book

In SwiftUI, you have the option to change the color of the shadow you add to views. (I exaggerated them here for effect.)
