iMessage, rebuilt line for line. Now it’s one SwiftUI view.

import SwiftChat

Chat {
    Message("Hey!", role: .user(id: "alex"), timestamp: .now)
    Message("Hi 👋", role: .me, timestamp: .now)
}

.me is the right side, tinted. .user is the left. .system sits in the middle. That snippet is a finished, polished conversation.

Real chats have data that keeps changing, so Chat also takes a collection and turns every element into a bubble. The only rule is that your model is Identifiable. It never owns your data; it reacts as it changes. Sending, typing, attachments and pagination are modifiers, like the rest of SwiftUI.

Chat(messages) { message in
    Message(message.text, role: message.role, timestamp: message.sentAt)
        .messageStatus(message.status)
}
.chatTypingIndicators(typing)
.chatInputCapabilities([.photoLibrary, .files])
.onChatSend { text, media in
    await conversation.send(text, media)
}
