swiftui tableview

To work with table views in SwiftUI, you can use the List view, which is a powerful and flexible way to display data in a table-like format. Here are some key points and examples from the WWDC sessions that might help you:

1. Basic List Usage:

   • You can create a list by passing a collection to the List initializer. This will generate views for each element in the collection.
   • Example from the session:

     List(pets) { pet in
         Text(pet.name)
     }
     

   • This is a simple way to display a list of items, where pets is a collection of pet objects.

2. Customizing List Rows:

   • You can customize each row in the list by using custom views.
   • Example from the session:

     List(pets) { pet in
         PetRow(pet: pet)
     }
     

   • Here, PetRow is a custom view that takes a pet object and displays its details.

3. Advanced List Features:

   • SwiftUI allows you to add features like swipe actions to list rows.
   • Example from the session:

     List(pets) { pet in
         PetRow(pet: pet)
             .swipeActions {
                 Button("Award") {
                     // Action to award the pet
                 }
             }
     }
     

   • This adds a swipe action to each row, allowing users to perform actions like awarding a pet.

4. Searchable Lists:

   • You can make lists searchable by using the searchable modifier.
   • Example from the session:

     @State private var searchTerm = ""
     
     List(filteredPets) { pet in
         PetRow(pet: pet)
     }
     .searchable(text: $searchTerm)
     

   • Here, filteredPets is a collection that is filtered based on the searchTerm.

These sessions cover the fundamentals of views, including lists and their customization, as well as advanced features like searchability and swipe actions.
