In the "What’s new in UIKit" session at WWDC 2024, several updates were introduced for UITableView. One of the key updates is the introduction of the list environment trait. This trait describes the style of the list that the view is in, allowing cells to be styled appropriately without needing to know the specific style of the list. This simplifies the cell configuration process, as the configuration code only needs to know the style required by the content, such as whether it is a regular cell, a header, or a footer. This update is part of a broader set of improvements to collection and table view APIs, making it easier to update your cells and ensuring they automatically adjust their appearance based on the list environment trait.
