At WWDC, Apple introduced several new SwiftUI APIs. Some of the notable additions include:

  1. WebView: A new SwiftUI view for displaying web content, powered by WebKit. This allows apps to show URLs and interact with web pages directly within SwiftUI.

  2. 3D Charts: Support for 3D charts has been added, allowing for more dynamic data visualization.

  3. Rich Text Editing: New capabilities for rich text editing have been introduced, enhancing text handling within SwiftUI apps.

  4. Scrolling Enhancements: New APIs provide fine-grained control over scroll views, including the ability to detect changes in view visibility due to scrolling and programmatically control scroll positions.

  5. RealityKit Integration: Enhanced integration with RealityKit, including observable RealityKit entities and improved coordinate conversion APIs.

  6. Custom Containers and Mesh Gradients: New custom container APIs and mesh gradients for more advanced UI designs.

  7. Swift 6 Language Mode: Improvements to make it easier to adopt the new Swift 6 language mode, including compile-time data race safety.
