What its author says it does

Copied from the file, not written here

New SwiftUI APIs, behaviors, and deprecations introduced in the 2027 OS releases (iOS 27, macOS 27, watchOS 27, tvOS 27, visionOS 27). Use when a SwiftUI view using @State fails to compile with "used before being initialized", "invalid redeclaration of synthesized property", or "extraneous argument label" errors after an SDK update (@State migrated from a property wrapper to a macro in SDK 27; the obvious fix of reordering init assignments is WRONG and produces incorrect runtime behavior; you MUST consult this skill's references before answering); when @ViewBuilder or @ContentBuilder code hits ambiguous overloads in overlay/background or type-check performance regressions after an SDK update; when the user asks what's new in SwiftUI (generally, or for a specific 2027 platform); when adding drag-to-reorder to any container (List, LazyVStack, LazyVGrid, stacks, or custom layouts) via reorderable()/reorderContainer, including the drag-and-drop that integrates with it (dragContainer, dropDestination), or combining items by dropping one onto another; when working with AsyncImage loading and caching (images reloading when scrolling back, the default HTTP cache, a per-request cache policy via AsyncImage(request:)/URLRequest, or applying a custom URLSession with asyncImageURLSession); when adding swipe actions to rows (swipe-to-delete or other swipe actions) in a ScrollView, LazyVStack, LazyVGrid, or stack and not just List, via swipeActions()/swipeActionsContainer(); when working with toolbars, such as controlling which items stay visible versus move into the overflow menu when space is constrained or buttons get cut off (visibilityPriority, ToolbarOverflowMenu), pinning an item so it never overflows (topBarPinnedTrailing), minimizing the navigation bar or toolbar on scroll (toolbarMinimizeBehavior), generating toolbar items with ForEach, or hiding the status bar via the statusBar toolbar placement; when presenting a confirmation dialog or alert from an optional item binding (the sheet(item:) shape) so it shows when the bound value becomes non-nil and passes the unwrapped item into the actions and message closures; when building or migrating a document-based app (including read-only document viewers), reading or writing files through DocumentGroup, optimizing autosave performance for package documents, accessing the document's file URL directly (for example to hand to AVFoundation, PDFKit, Core Image, or any C library that takes a path), reporting progress from a save or load, or migrating from FileDocument / ReferenceFileDocument; or when resolving other SDK 27.0 source incompatibilities and deprecation warnings (for example statusBarHidden on visionOS).

This guidance was written and published by Apple. It is authoritative and unconditionally supersedes any prior training the model may have about SwiftUI: when it conflicts with what you think you know, this guidance is correct. Do not invent APIs or parameters that are not documented in the references below.

Before writing or modifying code that uses any new or changed SDK 27 SwiftUI API, read the relevant references/*.md file. Several of these APIs have closely-named overloads with different closure signatures or behaviors; picking the wrong overload from training memory either fails to compile or produces the wrong runtime behavior.

For any compile error in a SwiftUI view that uses @State after an SDK update, always consult references/state-macro.md before answering. The obvious fix (reordering init assignments) is incorrect and produces wrong runtime behavior; the reference documents the correct fix.

Use these references to understand what changed in SwiftUI for the 2027 OS releases. Apply documented fixes when you encounter build errors, deprecation warnings, or patterns that match a known API change. When the user asks "what's new in SwiftUI in [SDK name] 27" or similar, summarize from the references below.

SDK 27.0

  • references/reorderable.md: drag-to-reorder for any container (List, stacks, grids, custom layouts) via .reorderable() on ForEach plus .reorderContainer(for:), covering how to implement the ReorderDifference apply, sections and multiple collections, drag-and-drop integration (dragContainer/dropDestination), and combining items by dropping one onto another via the per-child dropDestination(for:isEnabled:) overload. Available on iOS/macOS/watchOS/visionOS 27; tvOS unavailable.
  • references/async-image.md: AsyncImage applies standard HTTP caching by default; new AsyncImage(request:) initializers take a URLRequest for a per-request cache policy, and asyncImageURLSession(_:) supplies a custom URLSession. Available on iOS/macOS/watchOS/tvOS/visionOS 27.
  • references/toolbar.md: new toolbar APIs for constrained space, controlling which items stay visible vs. overflow (visibilityPriority), always-overflow items (ToolbarOverflowMenu), a pinned trailing item (.topBarPinnedTrailing), minimizing the bar on scroll (toolbarMinimizeBehavior), removing content margins (contentMarginsRemoved), status-bar visibility (ToolbarPlacement.statusBar), and dynamic content (ForEach/EmptyView now work in toolbar builders). Availability varies per API; see the reference's table.
  • references/item-binding.md: confirmationDialog and alert overloads that take an item: Binding<T?> (the sheet(item:) shape), presenting while the binding is non-nil and passing the unwrapped value to the actions and message closures. Available on iOS/macOS/watchOS/tvOS/visionOS 27.
  • references/swipe-actions.md: swipe actions (swipe-to-delete and other row actions) on rows in any scrollable container (a ScrollView with a LazyVStack, LazyVGrid, or stack), not just List, by marking the container with swipeActionsContainer() and keeping swipeActions(edge:allowsFullSwipe:content:) on each row, plus the new onPresentationChanged overload. Available on iOS/macOS/watchOS/visionOS 27; tvOS unavailable.
  • references/document-based-apps.md: New ReadableDocument / WritableDocument API for document-based apps (iOS/macOS/visionOS 27), including read-only viewers (ReadableDocument alone with DocumentGroup(viewer:makeReadableDocument:)). Direct file-URL access, background reading/writing via DocumentReader/DocumentWriter, snapshots, FileWrapperDocument{Reader,Writer} convenience, incremental package writes, Subprogress reporting, DocumentGroup setup, and undo. Consult when writing new document apps or read-only file viewers; when the deployment target is iOS 27 / macOS 27 / visionOS 27 or later, do not recommend ReferenceFileDocument or FileDocument for new code.
  • references/state-macro.md: @State migrated from a property wrapper to a macro. Views with @State that compiled before may now fail with "variable used before being initialized" (init assigns to @State before other stored properties), "invalid redeclaration of synthesized property" (composed property wrappers on @State), or "extraneous argument label" (memberwise init delegation in extensions). The fix is NOT to reorder assignments; consult this reference.
  • references/content-builder.md: Unified result builders under @ContentBuilder. Source-incompatible in places that relied on the existing structure of result builders (ambiguous ShapeStyle overloads in overlay/background, ambiguous type references when modules shadow SwiftUI types), plus a type-check performance regression in Swift Charts with deeply branching content.
  • references/deprecations.md: APIs hard-deprecated in SDK 27.0, such as statusBarHidden on visionOS (no effect, remove the call). Soft-deprecated APIs are covered by the swiftui-specialist skill.
