Controlling the timing and movements of your animations
At a glance
| Item | Summary |
|---|---|
| Purpose | Build sophisticated animations that you control using phase and keyframe animators. |
| App architecture | A Swift sample with the source-visible chain PhaseAndKeyframeAnimationSampleApp → ContentView → SwiftUI APIs. |
| Main patterns | No named application pattern supported by the extracted structure |
| Project style | 7 scanned source file(s) across Swift, organized around ranked entry, type, and file boundaries. |
| Execution model | No structured execution marker indexed; callback threading requires source review. |
| State/event model | Source-visible mechanisms: SwiftUI state property wrapper. |
| Key frameworks/packages | SwiftUI; these are source dependencies, not architecture labels. |

Structure observations
- Architecturally prominent files are ranked from entry points and role-named declarations; resource-only paths are omitted.
- Primary languages: Swift.
- The verified tree contains 4 project/configuration file(s) and 9 source declaration(s).

}Interpretation
The arrows summarize the source-visible entry, role-named types or folders, and framework direction; when nodes come from structural folders, the sequence is a high-level interpretation rather than proof that every adjacent node calls the next. Ownership is claimed only where the next section cites a stored property or assignment. The diagram is intentionally limited to the dominant path into SwiftUI.

Ownership evidence
PhaseAndKeyframeAnimationSample/KeyframeAnimationView.swift:18 — stored dependency or nearest verified ownership anchor
struct KeyframeAnimationView: View {
var emoji: String
// ...
}| Owner | Object or state | Relationship | Mutation authority |
|---|---|---|---|
KeyframeAnimationView |
String (emoji) |
owns value state | App/module collaborators |
ThreePhaseAnimationView |
String (emoji) |
owns value state | App/module collaborators |
EmojiView |
String (emoji) |
owns value state | App/module collaborators |
SimpleAnimationView |
String (emoji) |
owns value state | App/module collaborators |
Composition arrows indicate a source-visible construction expression or locally owned value state; aggregation means the owner stores or receives a dependency without proving exclusive lifetime ownership.
Concurrency, scheduling, and thread safety
Evidence limit: actor isolation, async/await, or Task creation does not by itself prove background-thread execution; Sendable conformance alone does not prove thread-safe mutation.
No source-visible execution, scheduling, or synchronization boundary was found in the indexed source.
@MainActor/MainActor.run, DispatchQueue.main, and RunLoop.main are reported as distinct isolation, queue, and event-loop mechanisms. A plain Task is kept separate from Task.detached; neither is labeled as a background thread.
State propagation, frameworks, and dependencies
Evidence limit: an import proves a source-level compilation dependency at the cited line; it does not prove runtime use, architectural adoption, or whether a Swift package is a direct application dependency.
| Category | Mechanism or module | Verified role | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| State propagation | SwiftUI state property wrapper |
A SwiftUI property wrapper supplies or observes UI state. | PhaseAndKeyframeAnimationSample/ContentView.swift:11 |
| Source import | SwiftUI |
The cited file imports this module; runtime use and architectural role are not inferred. | PhaseAndKeyframeAnimationSample/ContentView.swift:8 |
receive(on:) describes downstream delivery scheduling, while subscribe(on:) describes upstream subscription/request/cancel scheduling. An import Combine alone establishes neither behavior nor a Store, reducer, Redux, or other application architecture.
Class and protocol design

|---|---|---|

AnimationValues |
Represents a feature value or composable behavior | Concrete collaborators/imported frameworks |
AnimationPhase |
Defines a closed set of feature states or choices | CaseIterable |
No local protocol conformance is claimed as protocol-oriented design; external framework conformances are listed only as dependencies.
Access control
| Symbol | Access | Verified effect | Likely rationale |
|---|---|---|---|
emojis (PhaseAndKeyframeAnimationSample/ContentView.swift:11) |
private |
Use is restricted to the lexical declaration and same-file extensions allowed by Swift. | Inference: keep state mutation or dependency lifetime inside the owning implementation. |
likeCount (PhaseAndKeyframeAnimationSample/KeyframeAnimationView.swift:19) |
private |
Use is restricted to the lexical declaration and same-file extensions allowed by Swift. | Inference: keep state mutation or dependency lifetime inside the owning implementation. |
offset (PhaseAndKeyframeAnimationSample/SimpleAnimationView.swift:12) |
private |
Use is restricted to the lexical declaration and same-file extensions allowed by Swift. | Inference: keep state mutation or dependency lifetime inside the owning implementation. |
likeCount (PhaseAndKeyframeAnimationSample/ThreePhaseAnimationView.swift:32) |

Reference code
PhaseAndKeyframeAnimationSample/ContentView.swift:11 — representative boundary
struct ContentView: View {
@State private var emojis = ["🔥", "❤️", "🤩"]
// ...
}Swift declarations without a modifier are internal; explicit private, fileprivate, private(set), public, or open entries above are interpreted by language semantics. Objective-C/C samples instead rely on header and implementation boundaries, which are not equivalent to Swift lexical privacy.
Logic ownership and placement
| Logic | Owning type or file | Placement rationale |
|---|---|---|
| Application entry and top-level composition | PhaseAndKeyframeAnimationSampleApp |
The source’s App suffix makes this role explicit. |
| User-interface presentation and input forwarding | ContentView, EmojiView, KeyframeAnimationView, SimpleAnimationView |
The source’s View suffix makes this role explicit. |
Design patterns
| Pattern | Source evidence | Purpose or tradeoff |
|---|---|---|
| No named application pattern | PhaseAndKeyframeAnimationSample/PhaseAndKeyframeAnimationSampleApp.swift:11 |
The verified source directly composes concrete framework types; this document avoids forcing a pattern name. |
Naming conventions
- Types: App: PhaseAndKeyframeAnimationSampleApp; View: ContentView, EmojiView, KeyframeAnimationView, SimpleAnimationView, ThreePhaseAnimationView.
- Protocols: no local protocol declaration in the scanned source.
- Methods: no representative method name extracted from the architectural files.
- Files:
PhaseAndKeyframeAnimationSample/PhaseAndKeyframeAnimationSampleApp.swift,PhaseAndKeyframeAnimationSample/KeyframeAnimationView.swift,PhaseAndKeyframeAnimationSample/ThreePhaseAnimationView.swift,PhaseAndKeyframeAnimationSample/ContentView.swift,PhaseAndKeyframeAnimationSample/EmojiView.swift,PhaseAndKeyframeAnimationSample/SimpleAnimationView.swift.
Architecture takeaways
PhaseAndKeyframeAnimationSampleAppis the main source-visible entry or composition anchor for this sample.- Framework work reaches SwiftUI through a deliberately small high-level chain; the detailed API graph remains inside the cited implementation files.
- Stored-property evidence identifies lifecycle collaboration; it does not by itself prove exclusive object ownership.
- Access-control conclusions separate verified language visibility from the likely design rationale.
- The source does not justify labeling the design protocol-oriented.
