SwiftUI NavigationLink: Navigate to a destination view AFTER running account creation code successfully

Question

I want to run account creation logic and then, if successful, transition to the destination view. Otherwise, I\'ll present an error sheet. NavigationLink transitions immedia

Answer 1

You can wrap your Destination View in a lazy view to prevent the immediate invocation. Here's an example:

struct LazyView: View {
    let build: () -> Content
    init(_ build: @autoclosure @escaping () -> Content) {
        self.build = build
    }
    var body: Content {
        build()
    }
}

Eventually, invoke it like this:

NavigationLink(destination: LazyView(Text("Detail Screen"))){//your code}
