How can I understand the relationship between modifier and struct/extension in SwiftUI?
Here is a simple code snippet using frame() to control the size of the View:
struct ContentView: View {
var body: some View {
Text("Hello World")
.frame(width: 200, height: 100)
}
}
When I trace the .frame() method in XCode to its definition, I find that it is a method defined in extension View:
extension View {
// ...
@inlinable public func frame(width: CGFloat? = nil, height: CGFloat? = nil, alignment: Alignment = .center) -> some View
}
My question is: Why can the .frame() method be used directly on Text()? I checked, and Text itself does not implement the View protocol:
@frozen public struct Text : Equatable, Sendable
