Good: development speed, previews (when they work), state management with @Observable. Still painful: complex lists, navigation in older iOS versions, some UIKit interop. Would I start a new app in SwiftUI today? Yes, with UIKit escape hatches ready.

    Same with Compose, honestly. 90% joy, 10% 'why is this recomposing'.

    Interesting to see the same patterns as React: declarative UI is great until performance debugging.
