SwiftUIX - SwiftGit

Core Data

SwiftUIX

July 14, 2025

SwiftUIX attempts to fill the gaps of SwiftUI, providing an extensive suite of components, extensions and utilities to complement the standard library. This project is by far the most complete port of missing UIKit/AppKit functionality, striving to deliver it in the most Apple-like fashion possible.

Why

The goal of this project is to complement the SwiftUI standard library, offering hundreds of extensions and views that empower you, the developer, to build applications with the ease promised by the revolution that is SwiftUI.

Requirements

Deployment targets: iOS 13, macOS 10.15, tvOS 13, watchOS 6 and visionOS 1
Xcode 15.4+

Installation

The preferred way of installing SwiftUIX is via the Swift Package Manager.


                                              
                                                /// Package.swift

/// …

dependencies: [

.package(url: “https://github.com/SwiftUIX/SwiftUIX.git”, branch: “master”),

]

/// …

In Xcode, open your project and navigate to File → Swift Packages → Add Package Dependency…
Paste the repository URL (https://github.com/SwiftUIX/SwiftUIX) and click Next.
For Rules, select Branch (with branch set to master).
Click Finish.
Open the Project settings, add SwiftUIX.framework to the Linked Frameworks and Libraries, set Status to Optional.

Documentation

The SwiftUIX documentation can be found at:

https://swiftuix.github.io/SwiftUIX/documentation/swiftuix/

All documentation that hasn’t been migrated here is available via the repository wiki.

While the project itself is stable and heavily being used in production, its documentation is work-in-progress. Contributions are encouraged and welcomed.
