Phone-Sample

Objective

To gain experience building interfaces using SwiftUI by rebuilding a well known interface in iOS. There are others doing something similar with various other interfaces but I wanted to try something a little more varied.

Approach

I essentially just took screenshots of each view and then attempted to recreate it to a reasonable fidelity. This process was definitely a learning experience and one that let me uncover a few rough edges.

Issues

You can follow along in my repo feedback-examples for all the Feedback that I eventually file, but the following are ones filed directly because of this project:

• listview-scrollviewreader: List within a ScrollViewReader does not scroll when scrollTo(_, anchor:) is used
• recents-tab-sample: The navigation bar does not allow both a toolbar item in the .principal position and a title for the view
• navigationtitle-large: When using the .automatic/.large options for navigationBarTitleDisplayMode and displaying a ScrollView as the "root" view, the title will immediately jump into the navigation bar on any scroll thus disrupting the flow/offset that the user would expect. List does not suffer from this issue.
• listview-editmode-move:The move/reorder control on List rows changes the divider's trailing inset when this is not what happens with a normal UITableView
• No obvious way to set the toolbar/tab bar background for a given view, so the Keypad is unable to make the background white and thus "hide" the tab bar.
• No clear way to prevent a TextField from displaying a keyboard
