Opaque views are not specifically mentioned in the provided context from the WWDC sessions. However, in general, an opaque view in user interface design refers to a view that is not transparent, meaning it completely covers any views behind it. In SwiftUI, you can control the opacity of a view using the opacity modifier, which allows you to set how transparent or opaque a view should be.
