Hi, I am learning SwiftUI(typing level: awful), and trying to perform access to internet sites from within the application. However, i cannot figure out how to make it work. I have followed several different class examples, but none work in downloading a file. I am able to access the internet from within Safari on the simulator. Is there some setting, possibly within Xcode, that I need to set? What sort of debugging tools are available to try to debug the issue. Many Thanks, Rob
