Hi Chris, been your subscriber years ago (probably 4, 5). I just wanted to thank you for creating free content for all of us. If it hadn’t been for you, I wouldn’t be able to land a junior iOS job back then. My career started from your channel, and I can't thank you enough. I wish you the best of luck, and stay healthy. ❤
Wow! This means so much to Chris and the whole team! :) Thank you so much for learning with us! We wish you the best of luck too and stay healthy always! :) - Pat
I really love your tutorials because they teach me both coding skills and problem-solving techniques.
Thanks for the useful tutorial.
You are welcome! :) - Pat
Hi Chris! I love your videos! This is not at all related to this video, but it is just a question about an error that keeps happening in my code. It is not a systematic error, it is in the code somehow. The problem is whenever I make a navigation view and then I make a navigation title, the title does not show up for some reason. If you can, please reply to this message with your solution. Thanks!
Hi Chris- still learning SwiftUI and your videos have been super helpful. I’m trying to understand why this method is better than using tabview? Getting super confused what the best method is for approaching the bottom nav.
😮 never mind- guess it pays to read other comments, you’ve already explained below
I'm glad you found it! Thanks for watching! - Iñaki
Hi Chris,
Thanks so much for the video; I watch so many of yours eagerly. I built the custom tab bar and it works just as you have shown in the video but weirdly you didn't actually show the tab bar actually switching between tabs. I would've thought these would have gone hand in hand with the video. Could you please give me some guidance as to how to make it a functioning tab bar?
Cheers, Nic
Hello Nic!
We apologize for any confusion caused by the video on creating a custom tab bar. You're right; demonstrating the tab bar's functionality in switching between tabs would have been a useful addition. we appreciate you pointing this out.
For guidance on making your custom tab bar fully functional, I recommend checking out a video by Swiftful Thinking: ruclips.net/video/FxW9Dxt896U/видео.html.
Please be aware that this content is geared more towards intermediate learners and may include some advanced concepts. If you come across any terms or concepts that are unfamiliar, I encourage you to look them up. This approach will enhance your understanding and help you effectively implement the functionality in your project.
Again, thank you for your feedback!

hi, is it possible tab bar with webview?
Do you have any tutorials on how to actually link the tabbuttons to open their respective viewpages?
Did you end up finding any tutorials? I’m looking for the same thing
looking for the same thing…
@@HiJackBloo I found a decent one by Sean Allen “SwiftUI Tab Bar…”
He uses the storyboard tho (I used my iPad and playgrounds so that wasn’t as helpful)
@@HiJackBloo also “swiftful thinking” has one using the “TabBar()” function… which is slightly different that what these other videos use but might be easier and more straightforward
@@williamb1301 thanks will look into it
Hide the nav bar and you’re gonna be my idol, lol.
Thank you for the tutorial! Can you please make advanced tutorials for SpriteKit? It would be a new frontier that I think you would excel at!
Thanks for watching! You can leave tutorial recommendations here codecrew.codewithchris.com :) - Pat
Thank you for the good tutorial! My nav bar will not move down on the screen, and only lays in the middle, would you have any tips as to fix this?

What's next? How do I use this tapbar to switch between views?
hey which keyboard are you using ? Sounds look good.
sounds don't look, they sound
Hi Chris,
this is such a great tutorial. though, I have a question of how we can create views to serve each tab without rerendering each time a button is pressed? lets say, i'm editing text in one tab, secondly, go to another tab and then want to go back to the first tab to continue editing. How could we make the first tab keep all the thing i left before going to the second tab?
Thank you

@@CodeWithChris got it. thank you very much.
Can you maybe explain how you coded the custom fonts? Nevertheless very nice video!
Yes, this is the next video in the series: ruclips.net/video/4PI04Yj3Ngs/видео.html
@AdrienVillez
@@CodeWithChris What I meant is the Helpers/Fonts file, where you specify Fonts globally, so that I don't have to type it for every Text manually (the file at 05:46). It would be highly appreciated, if you could help me, I can not find infos for that anywhere! :/
I watching u first time. but I feel like i learned a lot watching u. can u put the Turkish subtitle this video pls?
I'll do one better, I'm gonna add Turkish subtitles everywhere! :)

What tool are you using to reference the tab bar you want to build?
The tab bar was designed on Figma. We’re using Figma to check the UI Design’s specific properties so we can translate it to code accurately. - Pat
Hi, Chris, when I type ".font(Font.chatHeading), it shows me wrong, Type 'Font' has no member 'chatHeading'. Could you tell me how to fix this problem? Thank you.
Hi Ji Zhou! For technical issues, we recommend posting them on our CodeCrew forum so that our tech support staff can help you out. Just visit this link codecrew.codewithchris.com. Thank you! - Pat
@@CodeWithChris Thank you.😄
THis is not default parameter for fonts, he created own extensions for fonts
Wait, how do I have it so that the buttons send me to different views?

The problem is that when you open up the keyboard it will shift up the entire tab bar up
In what situation would you create a custom Tab Bar instead of using a TabView?
Hello, @katecosta571!
While SwiftUI's built-in `TabView` provides convenient, out-of-the-box functionality for creating tabbed interfaces, one of the reasons why you might choose to create a custom Tab Bar instead is
**Customized Appearance**: If you need to customize the appearance of the Tab Bar beyond what is available in `TabView`, you would need to create a custom Tab Bar. For instance, you might want to change the color, shape, or size of the Tab Bar, or add unique animations and transitions.
In general, creating a custom Tab Bar is more work and requires a deeper understanding of SwiftUI. However, it provides greater control and flexibility over the appearance and behavior of the tabbed interface. As with most development decisions, whether or not to create a custom Tab Bar will depend on your specific needs, the complexity of your project, and your willingness to trade off development time for increased control and customization.
Hope this help.

sorry but as someone who just implemented a tab bar just recently, I can say that impl real production grade tab bar, is not an easy task... and the logic looks different, real tab manager honors swift life-cycle, and maintain states, most "easy to do" tab managers, do one of them .
Who else is here cause of their computer class?
Then this is useless: in the majority of projects you will find custom designs therefore this example is useless since working with SF symbols are way too different to work with assets design provide.
Too custom 😂
Hi, I saw your video on RUclips and would love to hear from you, hope we have a chance to work together
Hello Shyanne. You can find us and our students in our Community (codecrew.codewithchris.com/). We do not work directly with people to code and make apps for them at the moment. Our focus is on teaching. We have a bunch of students who, I'm sure, would love to work on a side project as freelancers. If your goal is to have an app made, you can learn to code it by yourself with us here on youtube and on www.codewithchris.com or you can go to some platforms like Fiverr or others to hire some developers.

@@CodeWithChris Hello, we are not trying to write an app, what we need is to work with you and let you help us promote it
