[!WARNING]
This package is now deprecated in favour of CardDeckPageViewStyle found in the new BigUIPaging package.

CardStack

A SwiftUI view that arranges its children in a whimsical interactive deck of cards.

CardStack mimics the behaviour of the photo stack in iMessage, as well as the “Top Stories” in Big News.

Overview

You create stacks dynamically from an underlying collection of data. Each item in the collection must conform to Identifiable.

CardStack(items) { item in
    RoundedRectangle(cornerRadius: 20, style: .continuous)
        .fill(item.color)
        .frame(height: 400)
}

Supporting selections in stacks

To make members of a stack selectable, install a tap gesture inside the view provider.

CardStack(items) { item in
    RoundedRectangle(cornerRadius: 20, style: .continuous)
        .onTapGesture {
            // do something
        }
}

To get a stack’s topmost card index, provide a binding to the currentIndex initialiser.

@State private var currentIndex = 0

CardStack(items, currentIndex: $currentIndex) { item in
    ...
}

Installation

Add CardStack to your app’s Package.swift file:

.package(url: "https://github.com/notsobigcompany/CardStack")

Alternatively, add it in Xcode by going to File -> Add Packages.

A SwiftUI preview is available in the CardStack file itself.
