One common question is how to create charts when developing apps. For experienced developers, you probably have used the Core Graphics APIs to draw shapes and objects. It’s a very powerful framework for you to create vector-based drawings. With SwiftUI, it is much easier to draw lines and shapes with several built-in vector drawing APIs.

This week, we published a new tutorial showing you how draw lines, arcs, and pie charts using Path. Please do check it out if you want to learn more about SwiftUI

Other than our own tutorial, we collected many great articles related to Swift, SwiftUI, and UI design. I’m quite sure you’ll learn something from them.

Talk soon.
