How SwiftUI Recomputes Views

Understand identity, value, and diffing.

Views Are Cheap Descriptions

A SwiftUI view is not a heavy object. It is a lightweight description of what the screen should look like right now. SwiftUI builds and discards them constantly.

body Runs Again and Again

When data changes, SwiftUI calls your view's body again to get a fresh description. This is normal and expected, not a bug.

var body: some View {
    Text("Count: \(count)")
}
