To paginate a scroll view in SwiftUI, you can use the paging behavior provided by the ScrollView. This allows you to create a pagination effect where the content snaps to discrete pages as you scroll.

Here's a basic example of how to implement pagination in a horizontal ScrollView:

import SwiftUI

struct PaginatedScrollView: View {
    var body: some View {
        ScrollView(.horizontal, showsIndicators: false) {
            HStack(spacing: 0) {
                ForEach(0..<10) { index in
                    Text("Page \(index)")
                        .frame(width: UIScreen.main.bounds.width, height: 200)
                        .background(Color.blue)
                        .foregroundColor(.white)
                        .font(.largeTitle)
                }
            }
        }
        .pagingEnabled(true)
    }
}

struct PaginatedScrollView_Previews: PreviewProvider {
    static var previews: some View {
        PaginatedScrollView()
    }
}

In this example, the ScrollView is set to scroll horizontally, and the HStack contains multiple pages. The pagingEnabled(true) modifier ensures that the scroll view snaps to each page as you scroll.
