Question 1

How do I add a date picker in an action sheet with Alerts & Pickers?

Accepted Answer

Use the `addDatePicker` method with parameters for mode, date, and a completion handler. The README recommends using `.actionSheet` style for better UX, and you can set minimum and maximum dates, as shown in the date picker example.

Question 2

Can I use Alerts & Pickers with SwiftUI?

Accepted Answer

Since it's a UIKit library, you'll need to wrap it in a UIViewControllerRepresentable to integrate with SwiftUI. This adds complexity compared to native SwiftUI components and may require extra bridging code.

Question 3

Alerts & Pickers vs native UIAlertController: what are the main advantages?

Accepted Answer

Alerts & Pickers extends native alerts with rich pickers like image galleries and map views, plus styling options, while standard UIAlertController is limited to basic text fields. However, it adds a dependency and requires iOS 11+.

Question 4

Does Alerts & Pickers support dark mode in iOS?

Accepted Answer

It likely inherits dark mode compatibility from UIKit, but the README doesn't explicitly mention it. You may need to manually adjust colors in config closures to ensure proper theming, as customization is done via code.

Question 5

How to handle validation for text fields in alerts?

Accepted Answer

In the text field config closure, use the `action` property to add validation logic. The README shows examples where this closure can trigger actions based on input, but you'll need to implement error handling manually.

Question 6

Is Alerts & Pickers actively maintained?

Accepted Answer

The README indicates Swift 4 and Xcode 9+ support, which are outdated. Check the GitHub repository for recent updates, as lack of maintenance could lead to compatibility issues with newer iOS versions or Swift releases.
