How can I emulate an iOS look?

To emulate an iOS look in your app, you can leverage SwiftUI, which provides a wide range of tools and components to create interfaces that are familiar to iOS users. Here are some key points and sessions from WWDC that can help you achieve this:

1. SwiftUI Components and Styles:

   • SwiftUI offers a variety of built-in components and styles that automatically adapt to the platform's look and feel. For example, using TabView and sheets will translate beautifully to different platforms, including iOS (Get started with HealthKit in visionOS).
   • You can customize and fine-tune the look and feel provided by SwiftUI using a large set of modifiers and protocols (Platforms State of the Union).

2. Document-Based Apps:

   • If you are working on a document-based app, you can use the UI document view controller to display documents. This approach is supported for apps with UI document view controller set as the window's root view controller (Evolve your document launch experience).

3. Media App Design:

   • For media apps, you can replicate the look and feel of Apple's own media apps using SwiftUI. This includes creating content lockups with images and text, which can be interactive and styled to match the iOS design language (Migrate your TVML app to SwiftUI).

4. Adaptive Design:

   • SwiftUI automatically provides adaptivity along several dimensions, such as dark mode, accessibility features, and localization. This ensures that your app looks good in various contexts and on different devices (SwiftUI essentials).

5. Window Customization:

   • You can tailor the style and behavior of windows on macOS, which can also be useful for creating a consistent look across platforms. For example, using the new plain window style to remove the default window chrome (What’s new in SwiftUI).
