SwiftUI Scrollview

Understanding how to implement vertical and horizontal scrolling

In this week's post, I want to share insights about ScrollView, one of the most commonly used interactions in software. SwiftUI makes it easier to create scrollable content.

SwiftUI enables us to implement both horizontal and vertical scrolling, which we will explore in this article.

So, how do we add a ScrollView?

To make content scrollable, we wrap the content inside a ScrollView.

ScrollView{}

Here is an example

In the code above, we added a ScrollView to a set of rounded rectangles. By simply adding .horizontal, we can change the scrolling to horizontal. Make sure to update the layout to use an HStack for horizontal scrolling.

Similarly, you can enable vertical scrolling by using .vertical and ensuring it is applied to a VStack.
