I am following Day 42 of Hacking with Swift and trying to sort my astronauts list alphabetically. But it doesn't work because my Astronaut is a custom type.

I have tried added .sorted() but it doesn't seem to be working.

var body: some View {
    NavigationView {
        if astronautsView {
            List(astronauts.sorted()) { astronaut in //here it crashes and dont sort
                NavigationLink(destination: AstronautView(astronaut: astronaut)) {
                    Image(astronaut.id)
                        .resizable()
                        .scaledToFill()
                        .frame(width: 44, height: 44)
                    .clipShape(Circle())
                        .shadow(radius: 10)
                    VStack(alignment: .leading) {
                        Text(astronaut.id.capitalizingFirstLetter())
                            .font(.headline)
                        Text(astronaut.name)
                    }
                }
                .navigationBarTitle("Moonshot")
                .navigationBarItems(trailing:
                    Button(action: {
                        self.astronautsView = !self.astronautsView }, label: { Text(self.astronautsView ? "Missions" : "Astronauts")
                    })
                )
            }

Thank you for reading and helping

I worked it out!!

Needed to add Comparable to my Struct and the set the method for sorting.

Very proud of myself and has given me the bump I needed to push on with the course as I was getting dispondent and questioning my inteligence/ability.

congratulations for sorting it out yourself! I've done that project as well, it was hell of a challenge. Dop you mind elaborating what you mean by customizing the type for Astronaut?
