iOS Lists and Forms

Form, Section, List, ScrollView, lazy stacks, and grids under One.iOS

Lists, forms, and scrolling containers under One.iOS, drawn by SwiftUI.

• Form and List give native grouped rows, section headers, and footers.
• ScrollView, lazy stacks, and grids lay out long or two-dimensional content.
• Row modifiers, swipe actions, pull to refresh, and search come through swiftStyle.
• Every view here throws on web and Android.

These are greedy containers: they take the box they are given, so give each its own box instead of nesting one inside a stack.

Form

One.iOS.Form is a grouped settings form. sizing is 'fill' (the default, flexes to its box) or 'content' (wraps its rows). Switching sizing remounts the form. Form also takes the environment values (colorScheme, dynamicTypeSize, controlSize, locale, tint, isEnabled).

Form also takes the environment props colorScheme, dynamicTypeSize, controlSize, locale, tint, and isEnabled, as described in iOS Stacks.

import { One } from 'one'

<One.iOS.Form>
  <One.iOS.Section title="General">
    <One.iOS.Toggle label="Airplane mode" isOn={on} onIsOnChange={setOn} />
  </One.iOS.Section>
</One.iOS.Form>

Section

One.iOS.Section groups rows with a title header and a footer string. Its swiftStyle accepts SwiftUI section modifiers such as headerProminence and listSectionMargins. React updates to these modifiers refresh that section.

List

One.iOS.List is a SwiftUI list. listStyle is 'automatic', 'sidebar', 'inset', 'grouped', 'insetGrouped', or 'plain'. You can use swiftStyle on the List for modifiers such as listSectionSpacingWithCGFloat. For example, a larger spacing value separates adjacent sections. Sections can set their own swiftStyle for header prominence and margins:

<One.iOS.List
  listStyle="insetGrouped"
  style={{ height: 520 }}
  swiftStyle={{ listSectionSpacingWithCGFloat: expanded ? 100 : 10 }}
>
  <One.iOS.Section
    title="First section"
    swiftStyle={{
      headerProminence: expanded ? 'increased' : 'standard',
      listSectionMargins: { edges: 'leading', length: expanded ? 80 : 16 },
    }}
  >
    <One.iOS.Text text="Apple" />
  </One.iOS.Section>
  <One.iOS.Section title="Second section">
    <One.iOS.Text text="Banana" />
  </One.iOS.Section>
</One.iOS.List>

On iOS 27, changing these values moved the first section’s leading edge by 64 points, enlarged its header, and moved the second section down by about 94 points. Returning to the original values restored all three positions. Other section modifiers, these modifiers inside Form, and other List styles still need runtime proof.

Use swiftStyle.refreshable for a native pull to refresh action. The bridge waits for the returned promise. Put swiftStyle.searchable on a One.iOS.NavigationStack around the List so iOS presents its native search field; keep the text in React state and filter the rows yourself:

<One.iOS.NavigationStack
  style={{ flex: 1 }}
  swiftStyle={{ searchable: { value: query, onChange: setQuery } }}
>
  <One.iOS.List
    listStyle="plain"
    style={{ flex: 1 }}
    swiftStyle={{ refreshable: async () => { await reloadItems() } }}
  >
    {items.filter((item) => item.includes(query)).map((item) => (
      <One.iOS.Text key={item} text={item} />
    ))}
  </One.iOS.List>
</One.iOS.NavigationStack>

An iOS 27 simulator proof pulled twice, observed the async callback, and started the second pull after the first callback’s promise resolved. It also checked native search edits and external React updates. The proof does not measure how long the native refresh indicator remains visible. The search field appeared in the NavigationStack’s toolbar. A standalone List host did not present a search field in that run. ScrollView refresh and search have a separate vertical-scroll proof below. Native indicator duration remains unmeasured for both containers.

Rows support swipe actions through Swift.SwipeActions. An EditButton composed inside the list changes its native label between Edit and Done. Row deletion and move actions are not yet exposed.

Use One.iOS.ViewSlot with name="listRowBackground" to supply a SwiftUI view behind one row. Its base child is the row; ViewSlot.Content is the background. Changing the background child from React updates the native row.

<One.iOS.List style={{ flex: 1 }}>
  <One.iOS.ViewSlot name="listRowBackground">
    <One.iOS.Text text="Apple" />
    <One.iOS.ViewSlot.Content>
      <One.iOS.Rectangle fill="#B1DAFD" />
    </One.iOS.ViewSlot.Content>
  </One.iOS.ViewSlot>
</One.iOS.List>

Use a row’s swiftStyle for SwiftUI row modifiers. For example, listRowInsets changes the leading inset (iOS 26 or later), while listRowSeparator and listRowSeparatorTint control the separator. React updates to these modifiers refresh that row in the native List. swiftStyle applies SDK modifiers in object order. When setting both a tint and visibility, put listRowSeparatorTint before listRowSeparator so the visibility modifier takes precedence.

<One.iOS.List listStyle="plain" style={{ height: 240 }}>
  <One.iOS.Text
    text="Inbox"
    swiftStyle={{
      listRowInsets: { edges: 'leading', length: expanded ? 96 : 16 },
      listRowSeparatorTint: { color: 'red', edges: 'bottom' },
      listRowSeparator: {
        visibility: expanded ? 'hidden' : 'visible',
        edges: 'bottom',
      },
    }}
  />
</One.iOS.List>

On iOS 27, the Text row moved by 80 points and its separator disappeared when these values changed; adjacent rows kept their positions. Returning to the original values restored the inset and red separator.

ScrollView

One.iOS.ScrollView scrolls its children. axes is 'vertical', 'horizontal', or 'both'; showsIndicators toggles the scroll indicators; swiftStyle applies native modifiers.

For a vertical ScrollView, swiftStyle.refreshable invokes a callback when the user pulls down. Place the ScrollView inside NavigationStack and put swiftStyle.searchable on the stack to show the native search field. The search text is controlled by React state, as in the List example above. An iOS 27 simulator proof covered two successive callback invocations, external query changes, and typing in the native field. It did not measure the refresh indicator’s duration or exercise horizontal and both-axis scrolls.

LazyVStack, LazyHStack

One.iOS.LazyVStack and One.iOS.LazyHStack lay children out lazily along one axis. Both take spacing. LazyVStack aligns with 'leading', 'center', or 'trailing'; LazyHStack aligns with 'top', 'center', 'bottom', 'firstTextBaseline', or 'lastTextBaseline'.

Grids

One.iOS.LazyVGrid lays out cells in columns, and One.iOS.LazyHGrid lays them out in rows. Put a lazy grid inside a scroll view along its lazy axis. columns or rows is an array of GridItem values. Each item has a SwiftUI size: fixed needs value, flexible accepts minimum and maximum, and adaptive needs minimum and accepts maximum. Items can also set spacing and a two-axis alignment. Omitted bounds and spacing use SwiftUI defaults; signed spacing passes through to SwiftUI; iOS 27 may clamp a negative row gap to zero.

<One.iOS.ScrollView style={{ height: 200 }}>
  <One.iOS.LazyVGrid
    columns={[{ size: 'fixed', value: 80 }, { size: 'flexible', minimum: 80 }]}
    spacing={12}
  >
    {items.map((item) => <One.iOS.Text key={item.id} text={item.title} />)}
  </One.iOS.LazyVGrid>
</One.iOS.ScrollView>

One.iOS.Grid builds a non-lazy two-dimensional layout. Put cells in One.iOS.GridRow; a child directly under Grid spans every column, following SwiftUI. Grid accepts alignment, horizontalSpacing, and verticalSpacing. GridRow accepts a vertical alignment.

<One.iOS.Grid horizontalSpacing={16} verticalSpacing={8}>
  <One.iOS.GridRow>
    <One.iOS.Text text="Name" />
    <One.iOS.Text text="Value" />
  </One.iOS.GridRow>
  <One.iOS.GridRow>
    <One.iOS.Text text="Width" />
    <One.iOS.Text text="80" />
  </One.iOS.GridRow>
</One.iOS.Grid>
