SwiftUI Shape and Form Design

This unit teaches students how to use Form and Section container views and the built-in shape views (Rectangle, RoundedRectangle, Circle, Capsule, Ellipse) in SwiftUI to build structured, accessible interfaces. Students will combine shapes and modifiers to create responsive layouts and prepare assets for further UI topics such as animation and interactivity.

Learning Objectives

• Analyze the roles and differences of Form and Section views and when to use each for grouped input and display in SwiftUI layouts
• Apply Rectangle, RoundedRectangle, Circle, Capsule, and Ellipse views with modifiers (fill, stroke, frame, cornerRadius, shadow, opacity, aspectRatio) to construct specified interface components
• Demonstrate composing multiple shape views within Forms and Sections to create responsive, reusable UI elements that match a given design specification
• Evaluate design and accessibility considerations (scaling, contrast, hit targets, and layout adaptability) and revise shape-based interfaces to meet usability standards
