https://github.com/brettfazio/DynamicUI

As the url. You've now integrated DynamicUI into your app!

Usage

Here's an example adding it to a simple view called HomeView

import SwiftUI
import DynamicUI

struct HomeView: View {
  
    @State reference: UIModel = // Fetch from some server or file
    @State model: DynamicVMProtocol = // class that conforms to DynamicVMProtocol

    var body: some View {
        DynamicUI(reference: $reference, model: $model)
    }
}

Contribution

This is still a very WIP package, and very early on in the development. If you'd like to contribute or help with the overall design/architecture of the package feel free to leave an Issue or PR or message me on LinkedIn.

Classses

DynamicUI

DynamicUI is your entry point to using this package. It is the struct that conforms to View that you will place in the body of your view.

UIModel

UIModel is the Codable struct that you will use to decode the json from your server into something that DynamicUI can read.

DynamicVMProtocol

The Dynamic View Model Protocol is a way to allow for button presses in your application. If you pass a Button into your UIModel json DynamicUI calls this didPress handler in the DynamicVMProtocol conformer. This allows you to identify which button was pressed and handle the press accordingly.
