Back in 2016 we built layer in Swift with a similar goal at Shopify, called FunctionalTableData.

FTD's syntax isn't nearly as nice as SwiftUI, but there's many similarities.

Purely for our own vanity - did Apple engineers take any inspiration from FTD? Or just independently set out to solve the same problems we had?

I saw somewhere that all this started around 2012.
