What swiftui-gestures does

This skill provides instructions for implementing and reviewing SwiftUI gestures under modern Swift 6.3 patterns. It details basic gestures like TapGesture and LongPressGesture, alongside continuous interactions using DragGesture, MagnifyGesture, and RotateGesture.

It guides gesture composition using .simultaneously(with:), .sequenced(before:), and .exclusively(before:). For transient animations, it enforces @GestureState to automatically reset values once a touch interaction finishes.

Layouts, lists, and broader state architecture are outside its boundary and require separate skills. It targets modern APIs starting with iOS 17, replacing deprecated types like MagnificationGesture.

What it helps with

  • combine zoom and rotation gestures simultaneously on a view
  • chain a long press before starting a drag interaction
  • migrate deprecated MagnificationGesture to MagnifyGesture
  • manage transient interaction offsets with @GestureState

Example prompts for the agent

  • Combine pinch-to-zoom and rotation gestures on an image using simultaneously
  • Implement a drag gesture that only activates after a successful long press
  • Update this view from MagnificationGesture to iOS 17 MagnifyGesture with @GestureState

Questions about swiftui-gestures

How to install swiftui-gestures in Claude Code?

Run npx skills add dpearson2699/swift-ios-skills --skill swiftui-gestures -a claude-code. This adds the gesture guidelines to your agent environment.

What does the swiftui-gestures skill do?

It guides AI assistants in writing and debugging SwiftUI gesture logic. It covers gesture composition, hit-testing priority, and state binding.

When should @GestureState be used instead of @State?

Use @GestureState for temporary values that must automatically reset when the gesture finishes. For persistent transformations like final offsets, store the result in @State.
