The Point of Redacted SwiftUI: Part 2

Episode #118 • Sep 21, 2020 • Subscriber-Only

We finish building a rich onboarding experience for our application by selectively enabling and disabling pieces of logic in the app depending on what step of the onboarding process we are on. This is only possible due to the strict “separation of concerns” the Composable Architecture maintains.

Introduction

With this done we have a mostly functional onboarding experience. When we step through the onboarding flow we will see that the redaction focus changes from the nav to the filters and then finally to the todo list. And each step of the way the UI does not allow any real logic to be executed. You can tap on any button and nothing happens.

But we can take this even further. What if we wanted certain parts of the application’s logic to be active while in a particular step of the onboarding process? For example, while on the actions step we could allow you to add todos, and on the filters step maybe we allow you to switch the filters, and while on the todos step we allow you to check off todos. This would enhance the user experience by allowing the user to explore certain functionality in the app while still operating within the onboarding sandbox.

To do this we are going to implement the onboarding domain as a whole new Composable Architecture feature. That means we will specify its state, actions and reducer, and use a store to drive our OnboardingView.
