Question 1

How to change the dim color in SwiftyWalkthrough?

Accepted Answer

Set the dimColor property on the walkthroughView instance, as shown in the README with examples using UIColor for custom colors and transparency.

Question 2

SwiftyWalkthrough vs Instructions for iOS – which should I use?

Accepted Answer

SwiftyWalkthrough offers more customization and control over the overlay, while Instructions provides more pre-built styles and easier setup; choose based on whether you need flexibility or quick implementation.

Question 3

How to handle walkthroughs across multiple view controllers?

Accepted Answer

Use the library's ability to attach to existing walkthroughs and cut holes in different views, managing state through the ongoingWalkthrough property and navigation between screens.

Question 4

Can I use SwiftyWalkthrough with SwiftUI?

Accepted Answer

No, SwiftyWalkthrough is built for UIKit and does not natively support SwiftUI; you would need to bridge it using UIViewRepresentable or consider a SwiftUI-specific alternative.

Question 5

How to add animations between steps in SwiftyWalkthrough?

Accepted Answer

Since it lacks built-in animations, you need to implement custom animations by subclassing WalkthroughView and managing transitions manually, such as fading holes or moving overlays.

Question 6

Is SwiftyWalkthrough good for apps with many walkthroughs?

Accepted Answer

It can work, but managing multiple walkthroughs requires additional state handling and custom logic, as it's a lightweight library without built-in management features like sequencing or persistence.
