iOS Native

When to use

Building or optimizing a native iOS application with Swift and SwiftUI

Wrapping UIKit components or embedding SwiftUI inside UIKit navigation

Implementing Core Data or SwiftData persistence with migrations

Replacing Combine chains with structured concurrency (async/await, actors)

Building App Clips, WidgetKit extensions, or interactive widgets (iOS 17+)

Configuring Xcode build settings per environment with .xcconfig files

Managing dependencies with Swift Package Manager and local package modules

Core principles

@Observable over ObservableObject — iOS 17+ macro is less boilerplate and more precise observation; stop using @Published everywhere

async let for parallelism — sequential awaits are serialized; independent async work should run concurrently

Actors for shared mutable state — @MainActor for UI; custom actors for domain isolation; Sendable for cross-boundary types

SwiftData for new apps, Core Data for existing — do not start a new project on a pre-iOS 17 ORM if you can avoid it

SPM over CocoaPods — local packages for feature modules; the build system integration is first-class now

Reference Files

references/swift-swiftui-data.md — SwiftUI property wrappers (@State, @Binding, @Observable, @Environment), UIKit interop (UIViewRepresentable, UIHostingController, Coordinator), SwiftData @Model/@Query/ModelContainer, Core Data NSPersistentContainer and NSFetchedResultsController, Combine operators and AnyCancellable lifecycle

references/concurrency-extensions-config.md — async/await patterns (async let, withTaskGroup, Task.detached), actor isolation (@MainActor, GlobalActor, nonisolated, Sendable), App Clips invocation and limitations, WidgetKit TimelineProvider and interactive widgets, Xcode .xcconfig per-environment configuration, SPM Package.swift local modules and binary targets
