Introduction

In SwiftUI, you can now use the new ShareLink1 view to share links and images using Apple’s ‘sharesheet’ option in only a few lines of swift code.

This features pairs well with SharePreview 2 that allows the user to view the image preview while the share-sheet is in action.

Code Snippet

import SwiftUI

struct ContentView: View {

    @State var image = Image("Image")

    var body: some View {
        VStack {
            Spacer()
            image.resizable().aspectRatio(contentMode: .fit)
            Spacer()
            ShareLink(
                item: image,
                preview: SharePreview(
                    "Share Preview",
                    image: image
                )
            )
            Spacer()
        }
    }
}
