Well apple themselves are pushing swiftUI and I suspect it will be the main (and only) approach as time goes on, even though its just a wrapper around "older" approach...
So then, another language which has lots of features, but if you are foolish enough to combine feature A, feature B and feature C, bad things will happen? C++ sends its regards...
Type annotate everything. Don’t mix integers and doubles, be explicit. Most important of all, do not ever make a long chain of nested result building function calls with those stupid trailing untyped dangling {} closures, especially when the closure expects an implicit return of an opaque ‘some’ type.
What I’m saying is, don’t use SwiftUI. It’s a pee filled kiddie pool to attract JavaScript react devs with awful performance and semantics.
