You’ve through this course writing code in a Playground Book. That’s been useful to see Swift code in action. It allows you to try out new concepts with near instantaneous results.

At this point, you are ready to start playing with SwiftUI. SwiftUI is a relatively new user interface toolkit. It allows you to create user interfaces by combining views in code.

This functionality is built within Swift Playgrounds so you can view your progress in realtime as you create your interface. It’s important to note that while SwiftUI code looks a little different from Swift itself, it is still just Swift code in the background. It’s using intermediate level features from the Swift language.

In this day of the course, you’ll compose your first SwiftUI interface and in doing so, you will learn to:

  • Describe the Text() view.
  • Identify how to layout controls using stacks.
  • Explain how to add an image to a SwiftUI app.
