anything new in SwiftUI?

At WWDC, Apple introduced several exciting updates to SwiftUI. Here are some of the highlights:

1. New Features and Enhancements: SwiftUI has introduced a range of new features to make apps feel fresh and modern. This includes a new tab view, beautiful mesh gradients, and snappy controls. The sidebar on iOS 18 has become more flexible, enhancing the user experience across platforms.

2. Graphics and Scrolling Improvements: New graphics capabilities allow for beautiful color mixing with a new mix modifier. There are also enhancements to scroll views, providing more programmatic control and the ability to detect when a view's visibility changes due to scrolling.

3. Web Content Integration: SwiftUI now supports embedding web content directly in apps with a full set of WebKit APIs, including a new WebView component. This allows for rich interaction with web pages and programmatic navigation.

4. Custom Containers and Interoperability: New APIs allow for the creation of custom container views, making it easier to work with foundational APIs. There are also significant improvements in interoperability with UIKit and AppKit, including gesture and animation integration.

5. Performance and Ease of Use: SwiftUI has seen performance improvements, particularly in lists and scrolling. The framework has also been updated to support the new Swift 6 language mode, which includes compile-time data race safety.

6. 3D and Immersive Experiences: SwiftUI now supports 3D charting and immersive experiences, with new tools for crafting volumetric and spatial layouts.
