How to control which view is shown when your app launches
Updated for Xcode 14.2
When you make a new SwiftUI project, Xcode will automatically create a new Swift file with the same name as your project, which will be used to bootstrap your app – to present your initial user interface.
For example, the default file will look like this:
struct SwiftUITestApp: App {
var body: some Scene {
WindowGroup {
ContentView()
}
}
}So, you can just change ContentView to whatever other view you want to show.
However, this is a great place to set up all the core UI you need, such as a tab view:
WindowGroup {
TabView {
HomeView()
ContactsView()
LocationView()
AccountView()
}
}
