Adding buttons and navigating with them

In this recipe, we will learn how to use various buttons available in SwiftUI. We will use a Button view to trigger the change of a count when clicked and implement a NavigationView to move between various SwiftUI views and an EditButton to remove items from a list. We will also briefly discuss the MenuButton and PasteButton only available in macOS.

Getting ready

Let's start by creating a new SwiftUI project called ButtonsApp.

How to do it…

Let's create a home screen with buttons for each of the items we want to go over. Once clicked, we'll use SwiftUI's navigation view to go to the view that implements the clicked concept. The steps are given here:

2. Select SwiftUI View from the UI templates.
3. In the Save As field of the pop-up menu, enter the filename ButtonView.
4. Repeat Step...
