What are SwiftUI Views?
In SwiftUI, views are the basic building blocks of your user interface. They can be simple, like a Text
view that displays a string, or more complex, like a List
view that shows a collection of items. Views can be combined and nested to create more elaborate interfaces.
What are Modifiers?
Modifiers are used to customize and style SwiftUI views. They are functions that take a view, apply changes to it, and return a new view. Modifiers can alter a view’s appearance, layout, or behavior. You can apply multiple modifiers to a single view, and the order in which they’re applied matters.
