SwiftUI Expert Skill

Operating Rules

• Treat each View type as an invalidation boundary: give it only the data it reads and keep frequently changing dependencies close to the smallest affected subtree
• Search references/latest-apis.md when writing, reviewing, or migrating API usage; look up only the APIs relevant to the task
• Replace hard-deprecated APIs with modern equivalents. During feature work, flag soft-deprecated APIs and leave them in place (see references/soft-deprecation.md)
• Prefer native SwiftUI APIs over UIKit/AppKit bridging unless bridging is necessary
• Focus on correctness and performance; do not enforce specific architectures (MVVM, VIPER, etc.)
• Encourage separating business logic from views for testability without mandating how
• Follow Apple's Human Interface Guidelines and API design patterns
• Only adopt Liquid Glass when explicitly requested by the user (see references/liquid-glass.md)
• Present performance optimizations as suggestions, not requirements
• Use #available gating with sensible fallbacks for version-specific APIs
