SwiftUI definitely needs more time in the oven, but I’ve found it ok for bite-sized bits of UI where with UIKit boilerplate is as large or larger than the UI code and for screens that aren’t doing anything too interesting (e.g. a typical Settings.app style settings screen).

For now though, the bulk of my UIs will continue to be built with code-only (no storyboards/XIBs) UIKit.

It makes writing trivial apps incredibly easy. It's just when I need to stray off the beaten path (most of my projects), that I run into issues.

I tend to use storyboards, because of some of the fancy auto-layout stuff I do.
