SwiftUI List features within complex grids of content

Our app displays complex, data-driven layouts that can display grids of items in addition to full width rows (essentially, nested lists). We'd like to be able to preserve cell/item portability (i.e., display in any content strip) and allow them to carry capabilities like swipe actions. In UIKit we have features in compositional layout that allow for this. However, in SwiftUI the only support seems to be at the List level.

Nesting a List within a ScrollView to get swipe actions feels like a dark road. We've rolled our own swipe actions system, but we'd much rather use a native solution. Any other options here?

Thanks for filing the enhancement request. First you can maintain your existing implementation and bring that to SwiftUI using a UIViewRepresentable.

You could also create a custom swipe action implementation with a drag gesture and a contextShape. That might be worth exploring if you haven't already.
