@willing@mastodon.social yeah, all the subview-y APIs have been great additions, still totally separate axis of functionality though. UIHostingController can get you pretty far! Just look out for sharp edges.
I never took that far enough to have a general list of issues. I think the things I recall are mostly state inconsistencies and environment/preference weirdness. In theory, now that we have Environment ↔ UITraitCollection bridging, I think it should be better than ever though.

@axiixc@social.axiixc.com Hosting controllers work great for custom tab bars, but I feel one of the main draws for fully custom navigation stacks is matched geometry effects. Sadly, matched effects do not reach beyond their hosting container (namespace isolation?), so it doesn’t quite get the job done.
