Why SwiftUI developers aren't learning UIKit

I asked SwiftUI developers on Twitter why they aren't learning UIKit. Let's go over some responses and discuss the possibilities!

Most of Projects and Advanced APIs still in UIKit

If my job was only create new stuff, ok, only studying SwiftUI

But I give maintenance to codebases with code from 2015 at my actual job.

And it's the biggest bank from my country, so yes, I need to know Obj-C too.

If a new developer, best to learn SwiftUI (and SwiftData) first, because it’s quicker, and will definitely be needed in the future… then expand your knowledge to cover UIKit (and Core Data) in due course.

Simple: because creating UI in SwiftUI is so much easier

Cause they are ok with making some basic shit and never finish a project.😅
