Padding vs Frame: The Repeat Test

Understand how layout reacts when padding and frame swap order.

Build a button and alternate between .padding().frame() and .frame().padding().

Compare tap area, alignment, and clipping.

Repeat with Text and Image to see consistent rules.

This drill prevents common layout surprises.

Once you see the pattern, you can place modifiers confidently.

Repetition is the fastest way to lock this in.

Repeat the test with rounded rectangles to see clipping differences.

Note how frame alignment changes layout in parent stacks.

Try the repetition loop

Pick a SwiftUI concept and write it 50 times. Feel the pattern lock in.
