In the session titled "Demystify SwiftUI containers" at WWDC 2024, SwiftUI's custom container APIs are explored in detail. The session discusses how to build custom container views that can support various capabilities similar to SwiftUI's built-in containers like List and Picker. These capabilities include mixing static and dynamic content, supporting sections, and adding container-specific modifiers.
The session also introduces new APIs for building custom container views, such as container values, which are a new kind of keyed storage. Container values allow for container-specific customization options and are only accessible by their direct container, making them ideal for implementing specific customization features.
For more detailed information, you can refer to the session Demystify SwiftUI containers (00:07) and Demystify SwiftUI containers (01:09).
