In the session titled What’s new in SwiftUI, there are several new features and improvements introduced for SwiftUI, including enhancements to the VideoPlayer
. Specifically, SwiftUI now allows you to detect when a view's visibility changes due to scrolling, which can be used to create experiences centered around content moving on or off the screen, such as auto-playing videos. This provides more programmatic control over your scroll views and the ability to create dynamic and engaging video playback experiences within your SwiftUI applications.
For more details, you can refer to the session What’s new in SwiftUI.
