MockingbirdUIKit

Mockingbird is a UIKit renderer for platform independent Mockingbird DSL. The goal of this project is to provide a SwiftUI-like UI framework for older iOS versions starting from iOS 9.

Example

MockingbirdUIKit is just like SwiftUI for UIKit except that the body of your views return SomeView instead of some View to enable pre-iOS 13 compatibility.

structMyView:View{@Statevarcounter:Int=0varbody:SomeView{VStack(spacing:20){Text("\(counter)").fontWeight(.heavy).padding(20).background(Color.orange).clipShape(RoundedRectangle(cornerRadius:10)).shadow(radius:10)HStack{Button("Decrease"){self.counter -=1}Button("Increase"){self.counter +=1}}}}}
window.rootViewController =HostingController(rootView:MyView())
