Perhaps I should not be asking this here, but can anyone recommend a good learning resource/tutorial for a complete beginner for SwiftData and CloudKit?

In the SwiftData layer, the only thing you can use to configure CloudKit is ModelConfiguration.CloudKitDatabase.

Underneath, SwiftData uses NSPersistentCloudKitContainer for CloudKit integration, so all the documentations and knowledges related to NSPersistentCloudKitContainer help understand how SwiftData + CloudKit works, and you can start with CloudKit mirroring.

You can start here https://developer.apple.com/wwdc23/10187 and then use "ultimate" resource here: https://www.hackingwithswift.com/quick-start/swiftdata

Happy coding.
