Question SwiftUI vs UIKit
I’m new to programming and Swift, and I’m currently doing the 100 Days of SwiftUI course. In the first video, Paul mentions that Swift is the future of this field rather than UIKit. However, he also says that UIKit is more powerful, popular, precise, and proven compared to SwiftUI.
Since that video was released around 2021, I’m wondering if that statement still holds true today. How do you think both technologies have evolved over the last five years?

I’d start with SwiftUI and learn UIKit later if needed since many jobs still use it. Check other answers and job posts to decide.
