Features

• Native Platform Access - Connects SwiftUI layouts with native platform views to enable the use of advanced Apple framework features.
• Declarative-to-Native View Mappings - Links high-level declarative view types to their corresponding concrete UIKit or AppKit implementation classes.
• UI Component Weak References - Prevents memory leaks by storing native view pointers in non-retaining wrappers until the view is detached.
• Native API Customizations - Accesses underlying UIKit or AppKit components to apply styling and behavior not available in the standard SwiftUI API.
• Native View Accessors - Provides a utility for extending SwiftUI views with direct access to underlying UIKit or AppKit view instances.
• Native View Wrappers - Creates custom support for native views that are not yet officially wrapped by the SwiftUI framework.
• UIKit Interoperability - Bridges SwiftUI with UIKit and AppKit to apply customizations via native platform APIs.
• Native UI Tree Traversers - Recursively searches the native view tree to find specific component types based on class identity.
• Native View Introspection - Provides a mechanism to retrieve and manipulate the underlying platform components that power a SwiftUI user interface.
• UI Rendering Pipeline Injection - Injects custom logic into the view rendering pipeline by wrapping native components in generic containers.
• UI View Subclass Casting - Provides a mechanism to cast generic native view references into specific platform types to unlock restricted API methods.
• Memory Leak Prevention - Handles weak references to native views within SwiftUI to prevent memory leaks and retain cycles.
• Native Bridge Memory Management - Provides a specialized property wrapper to store references to native views without creating memory leaks.
• Native View Reference Tracking - Provides a system for storing weak references to native platform views without creating memory leaks or retain cycles.
• Custom Introspection Types - Enables the definition of custom types to gain access to native platform views that are not supported by default.
• View Lifecycle Hooks - Implements custom closure logic that hooks into the SwiftUI view lifecycle after native initialization.
• Developer Tools - Access underlying UIKit components from within the framework.
