Yes, you can perform a group by query with SwiftData. SwiftData provides a robust querying system that includes sorting, filtering, and grouping capabilities. You can use the predicate macro to build complex queries, including those that group data.
For more detailed information on how to optimize and perform queries, you can refer to the session What’s new in SwiftData which covers creating rich and optimized queries for SwiftData.
