Get started animating all sorts of SwiftUI views, including shapes, fades, transitions, and interacting with animation!
Version
- Swift 5.3, iOS 14, Xcode 12


Beginning with SwiftUI Animation
Every animation in SwiftUI is based on a simple principle: an animation is a change in value or state over time.
Marking properties as 'State' will trigger a new snapshot of your view each time they’re modified. These can be automatically interpolated by SwiftUI!
Animation Options
1:52An Animation is a small collection of data that defines the properties of a resulting animated effect. These include duration and timing curve information.
Combine Animations
6:12Create a tappable thumbnail image which will present a larger version of itself with a neat combination of animations.
Challenge: Rotation
2:05You've animated quite a few properties at the point: including color, position, and scale. Your challenge is to add rotation to the mix.
Spinner
8:13Over the rest of this part, you'll build by working to build a modern, fluid spinner-view. You'll lay the foundations for it in this episode.
Multiple Stages
9:37Combine multiple animations into one amazing composition. Utilize transition effects, along with the Animations type you've learned about already.
At this point, you know plenty about creating animations with SwiftUI. But there is one last topic to cover: creating beautiful animations driven by the user.
Conclusion
0:52Review some key points to keep in mind, as you continue exploring, regarding shapes, State, gestures, and other modifiers.
