| description | Apple Human Interface Guidelines for iOS 26 / Swift 6.2 clinic-architecture apps. Covers navigation, interaction design, accessibility, feedback states, UX patterns, and visual design for SwiftUI implementations that follow App-target coordinators/route shells and Domain/Data boundaries. Use when designing or reviewing HIG-compliant experiences in the clinic modular MVVM-C stack. |
Apple iOS HIG Best Practices
Comprehensive guide for Apple Human Interface Guidelines compliance in iOS apps built with SwiftUI. Contains 34 rules across 6 categories covering navigation, interaction design, accessibility, user feedback, UX patterns, and visual design.
Clinic Architecture Contract (iOS 26 / Swift 6.2)
All guidance in this skill assumes the clinic modular MVVM-C architecture:
- Feature modules import
Domain + DesignSystem only (never Data, never sibling features)
- App target is the convergence point and owns
DependencyContainer, concrete coordinators, and Route Shell wiring
Domain stays pure Swift and defines models plus repository, *Coordinating, ErrorRouting, and AppError contractsData owns SwiftData/network/sync/retry/background I/O and implements Domain protocols- Read/write flow defaults to stale-while-revalidate reads and optimistic queued writes
- ViewModels call repository protocols directly (no default use-case/interactor layer)
When to Apply
Reference these guidelines when:
- Building navigation hierarchies with tab bars, NavigationStack, or split views
- Designing touch interactions, gestures, and haptic feedback
- Ensuring accessibility with VoiceOver, Dynamic Type, and color contrast
- Implementing loading states, error handling, and empty states
