This is impressive but I think it's interesting that Apple is seemingly jettisoning Auto Layout with the introduction of SwiftUI with Stacks and Alignments.

Having worked with a lot of different layout and alignment systems, Auto Layout seemed to me to be considerable overkill. I found it generally not worth all the brain power needed to understand it and more importantly debug it when it isn't doing what you want.



Even before SwiftUI (which is a paradigm shift), Apple released the NSLayoutAnchor API, which superseded VFL.
