Learn SwiftUI

Adding a multiline text input and country picker

At the time of writing this book, there is no native way of creating a multiline Text View using only SwiftUI components. In order to achieve this, we'll have to tap into our old friend UIKit. Much like the helper we created in the previous section, we'll basically create a wrapper around UITextView (which in turn allows multiline support) and bring it back as a SwiftUI View.

As previously mentioned, this is a little out of scope for this book, but in a later chapter, we'll cover this in a little more detail for those of you who are familiar with UIKit's exciting components and are interested in using them.
