Passing Data

A detail screen is usually its own view struct with a property for the data it shows:

struct RecipeDetail: View {
    let recipe: Recipe

    var body: some View {
        Text("Ready in \(recipe.minutes) minutes")
            .navigationTitle(recipe.name)
    }
}

Swift gives the struct an initializer with a parameter for each stored property, so RecipeDetail(recipe: pancakes) creates it. In a list, each link passes its own row's data:

List(recipes) { recipe in
    NavigationLink(recipe.name) {
        RecipeDetail(recipe: recipe)
    }
}

Every row gets a link to a detail screen for its recipe. The detail view does not need to know about the list at all.
