UIPilot

Why another SwiftUI navigation library?

• UIPilot is not a replacement for SwiftUI's NavigationView, it's rather a wrapper around it that you would have likely written. Thus all standard NavigationView features like title, swipe gesture, topbar, etc. are available by default.
• APIs are inspired by the Android, flutter, and web-based routers - Very simple and easy to use.
• Typesafe navigation - Routing to the wrong path will fail at compile time rather than runtime.
• Typesafe parameters - Routing with wrong parameters will fail at compile time rather than runtime.
• Very tiny library - it's barely 200 lines of code.

Examples

Please have a look at the article and the examples to know more about different use cases of UIPilot.

Complex use cases

The library is designed to meet simple use cases as well as complex ones. You can also have nested UIPilot as many as you like!

For example, it's very easy to achieve split screen-like behavior.

Please have a look at the article for more information of the implementation.

Installation

Version 1.x - Uses SwiftUI NavigationView underneath.

Version 2.x - Uses UIKit UINavigationController underneath (recommended).
