What Is a View?

Learn the View protocol and the body computed property.

Everything Is a View

In SwiftUI, almost everything you see on screen is a view. Text, images, buttons, and even your whole screen are all views. 📱

A view is any type that conforms to the View protocol. Conforming means you promise to describe what should appear on screen.

struct ContentView: View {
    var body: some View {
        Text("Hello!")
    }
}
