How's building on SWIFT UI? We will be using it for the first time for a client.

TLDR: I like it.

Working with SwiftUI is fantastic – I always had trouble getting the storyboards to work properly (not really a nocode guy). The rapid changes and control over every detail that SwiftUI provides, while at the same time managing the things you don't need to handle yourself (such as with the Spacer struct), is really a big step in the right direction for Apple.

With that said, there's still a lot to be done – it doesn't totally feel finished. When you run into these missing bits – like a loading indicator – you have to write wrappers around UIKit components.
