🛫 Departure

Tests Swift 6.3 iOS 17+ Class A

Buy Me a Coffee

Departure is a robust, expressive routing framework for SwiftUI.

Declare the destinations a screen owns. Request them from wherever the user’s intent starts. Departure finds the closest eligible owner, presents with the right style, and gives actions a route-aware place to run.

• Push, sheet, and cover routes from one small API.
• Keep domain routes independent from the feature modules that build their views.
• Preserve navigation state across tabs and other selection-based containers.
• Reroute guarded flows, unwind precisely, and intercept route-scoped actions.
• Raise a critical flow above the app when it truly cannot wait.

await router.present(SettingsRoute())

Departure requires Swift 6.3+, supports iOS 17+ and macOS 14+, and is available through Swift Package Manager.

dependencies: [
 .package(url: "https://github.com/mtzaquia/departure.git", from: "2.0.3"),
],

Install WithRouter, make a route, declare how HomeView presents it, then request it.

@main
struct ExampleApp: App {
 var body: some Scene {
 WindowGroup {
 WithRouter {
 NavigationStack {
 HomeView()
 }
 }
 }
 }
}
struct SettingsRoute: Route {
 func destination() -> some View {
 SettingsView()
 }
}
struct SettingsView: View {
 var body: some View { Text("Settings") }
}
struct HomeView: View {
 @Environment(Router.self) private var router
 var body: some View {
 Button("Settings") {
 Task { await router.present(SettingsRoute()) }
 }
 .routes {
 Sheet(SettingsRoute.self)
 }
 }
}

That’s the core idea: the screen that owns the presentation declares it; the screen that starts the flow simply asks for the route.

Routes may also omit destination() and let a feature module supply the view through RouteViewProviding. See Routing for the module layout and fallback behavior.

• Getting started — setup, routes, and declarations.
• Routing — presentation styles, ownership, and guarded routes.
• Actions — route-aware work and interception.
• Unwinding — dismissing flows and returning values.
• Branches — routing in tabs and other selection containers.
• Priority — high- and critical-priority presentations.
