Prompt

I am designing the layout for an iPad and Mac document manager that features a folder directory, a file list, and a detail viewer panel. Could you evaluate my requirements and give me a structural recommendation along with a code template showing the correct top-level container setup and proper view hierarchy for multi-pane drill-down?

What was checked, without and with the skill
Checked	Without skill	With skill
Recommends NavigationSplitView as the top-level container for three-column layout	Passed	Passed
Places NavigationStack exclusively within the detail column rather than sidebar or content columns	Missed	Passed

Navigation Patterns

Comprehensive guide for SwiftUI navigation architecture on iOS, iPadOS, and macOS. Covers the modern navigation APIs (iOS 16+/macOS 13+) with patterns for common and advanced use cases.

When This Skill Activates

User is building or reviewing navigation architecture
User has navigation-related bugs (stack not updating, back button issues, state loss)
User asks about NavigationStack, NavigationSplitView, TabView, or NavigationPath
User needs programmatic navigation (push, pop, pop-to-root)
User is implementing deep linking that connects to navigation
User asks about navigation transitions or animations
User is choosing between navigation approaches for their app

Decision Tree

Use this to pick the right navigation container:

What is the app structure?
│
├─ Flat sections (3-5 top-level areas)
│  └─ TabView → see tab-view.md
│
├─ Hierarchical drill-down (list → detail)
│  └─ NavigationStack → see navigation-stack.md
│
├─ Sidebar + content (macOS / iPad)
│  ├─ Two columns → NavigationSplitView → see navigation-split-view.md
│  └─ Three columns → NavigationSplitView → see navigation-split-view.md
│
└─ Combined (tabs with drill-down, sidebar with stacks)
   └─ TabView + NavigationStack per tab
      OR NavigationSplitView + NavigationStack in detail
