To paginate a horizontal ScrollView in iOS 16 using SwiftUI, you can use the paging behavior provided by ScrollView. This allows you to create a pagination effect where the content snaps to a page as you scroll. Here's a basic example of how you can implement this:

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) // Enable paging behavior
    }
}

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

In this example, the ScrollView is set to horizontal scrolling, and the HStack contains multiple pages. The pagingEnabled(true) modifier is used to enable the pagination effect. Note that pagingEnabled is a conceptual representation here; in actual SwiftUI, you might need to implement custom logic to achieve paging behavior, as SwiftUI does not have a direct pagingEnabled modifier like UIKit.

For more advanced custom scroll effects, you can refer to the session Create custom visual effects with SwiftUI (01:29) from WWDC 2024, which discusses creating custom scroll effects and transitions.
