The Grid view

Besides stacks, SwiftUI defines a container view called Grid to lay out child views in a grid. An example of a grid would be a checkerboard, where each square tile would be a grid item. Everything you can achieve with lists and tables, you can also achieve with a grid, as a list is just a grid where you happen to have a single item per row (instead of many!).

Apple’s definition of Grid is, “a container view that arranges views in a two-dimensional layout”.
