Localize your SwiftUI app

1:34 - Text() with a string literal

Button(action: done) {
   Text("Done", comment: "Button title to dismiss rewards sheet")
}

1:58 - Text() with a string literal and interpolation

// RewardsCard.swift

Text("You are \(10 - totalStamps) points away from a free smoothie!")

2:06 - Text() with tableName

// RecipeView.swift
Text("Ingredients.recipe", tableName: "Ingredients", comment: "Ingredients in a recipe. For languages that have different words for \"Ingredient\" based on semantic context.")
Text("Ingredients.menu", tableName: "Ingredients", comment: "Ingredients in a smoothie. For languages that have different words for \"Ingredient\" based on semantic context.")

2:52 - Declare localizable attributes in a custom view

struct Card: View {
    var title: LocalizedStringKey
    var subtitle: LocalizedStringKey
    
    var body: some View {
        Circle()
            .fill(BackgroundStyle())
            .overlay(
                VStack(spacing: 16) {
                    Text(title)
                    Text(subtitle)
                }
            )
    }
}

Card(
    title: "Thank you for your order!",
    subtitle: "We will notify you when your order is ready."
 )

3:47 - Text() with multiline string literal

Text("""
        A delicious blend of tropical fruits and blueberries will
        have you sambaing around like you never knew you could!
        """,
        comment: "Tropical Blue smoothie description")

4:39 - Customize attributes

VStack(alignment: .leading) {
    Text(smoothie.title)
        .font(.headline)
    Text(ingredients)
}

5:13 - Using Markdown

// Smoothie.swift

Text("A refreshing blend that's a *real kick*!", comment: "Lemonberry smoothie description")

6:04 - Create a measurement formatter (prior to iOS 15)

let calories = Measurement<UnitEnergy>(
    value: nutritionFact.kilocalories, unit: .kilocalories)

static let measurementFormatter: MeasurementFormatter = {
    let formatter = MeasurementFormatter()
    formatter.unitStyle = .long
    formatter.unitOptions = .providedUnit
    return formatter
}()

Text(Self.measurementFormatter.string(from: calories))

Text("Energy: \(calories, formatter: Self.measurementFormatter)")

6:22 - Specify the format in a declarative manner (iOS 15)

let calories = Measurement<UnitEnergy>(
    value: nutritionFact.kilocalories, unit: .kilocalories)

Text(calories.formatted(.measurement(width: .wide, usage: .food)))

Text("Energy: \(calories, format: .measurement(width: .wide, usage: .food))")

6:53 - Specify a keyboard shortcut

struct SmoothieCommands: Commands {

    var body: some Commands {
        CommandMenu(Text("Smoothie", comment: "Menu title for smoothie-related actions")) {
            SmoothieFavoriteButton(smoothie)
                .keyboardShortcut("+")
        }
    }
}
