Leveraging Enums for Flexible Button Styling in SwiftUI

Artem demonstrates how Enums can be used to define styling logic that adapts to different design needs.

Leveraging Enums for Flexible Button Styling in SwiftUI → Livsy Code

Greetings, traveler! Enums in Swift are a powerful tool for defining a set of related values in a type-safe way. Beyond their basic use for representing fixed options, enums can serve as a foundation for more complex logic, enabling clean and maintainable code in iOS applications. In this article, we’ll explore how enums can be

Create Custom Symbols

As developers and designers, we often find ourselves needing custom icons while still wanting to take full advantage of the SF Symbols ecosystem, like dynamic scaling, rendering modes, and native integration with SwiftUI and UIKit.

This practical tool developer by Kenny makes that much easier by letting developers convert with a simple drag and drop any SVG icon into a custom SF Symbol format, ready to use in Xcode. The developer also provides detailed infos on the website, guiding users through the process and ensuring they get the most out of the app.

‎Create Custom Symbols

‎A tool that can convert any SVG icon into a custom SF symbol. Your customized SF symbol can be imported into Xcode and utilized in any project based on UIKit or SwiftUI. Effortlessly convert any SVG icon into an SF symbol file usable in Xcode by simply dragging and dropping the icon, enabling swift…
