To format dates in your app, you can use the new reference date format style introduced in SwiftUI. This allows you to display live times and dates, which are customizable and can adapt to the size of their container. This feature is particularly useful for widgets and live activities, as it includes date references, date offsets, and timers. You can find more details in the session What’s new in SwiftUI (10:57).
Additionally, if you are working on multilingual apps, you can use the formatted API to ensure that names and numbers are displayed correctly according to the user's locale. This is discussed in the session Build multilingual-ready apps (10:33).
For more advanced date handling, such as extracting date components for machine learning models, you can refer to the session What’s new in Create ML (08:38), which introduces a date feature extractor component.
