How to Use @MainActor

Ensure UI updates happen on the main thread.

Steps

  1. Paste the code into a Swift file or playground.
  2. Run it once to verify the output.
  3. Adjust the inputs to match your use case.

Copy and paste

import Foundation

@MainActor
class ViewModel {
    var title: String = "Loading"

    func update() {
        title = "Ready"
    }
}

Notes

  • Keep functions small and focused for reuse.
  • Prefer safe APIs like optionals and guards.
