In this chapter, we learned how declarative syntax allows the developer to write syntax in a way that describes the actions and functions required and how its counterpart, imperative programming, is more logic-based.
We learned about the structure of declarative syntax and how understanding the view hierarchy is important to us, especially as every component on the screen is of the View type.
We also got to use SwiftUI for the first time in Xcode and took our first glance at the structure and arrangement that the declarative syntax has to offer, including nesting Views, and the importance of Group containers to arrange our subviews.
In the next chapter, we'll move onto the layout of SwiftUI and understand the structure of not just our code, but the architecture of our code base.
