Go to a new view using SwiftUI

Question

I\'ve got a basic view with a button using SwiftUI and I\'m trying to present a new screen/view when the button is tapped. How do I do this? Am I suppose to create a delegat

I made a ViewModifier for this. It also means that there is no navigation bar. You can call it like so:

.navigate(to: MainPageView(), when: $willMoveToNextScreen)

This can be attached to anything, so I typically attach it to the end of the body, for example:

@State private var willMoveToNextScreen = false

var body: some View {
    VStack {
        /* ... */
    }
    .navigate(to: MainPageView(), when: $willMoveToNextScreen)
}

Code (remember to import SwiftUI):

extension View {

    /// Navigate to a new view.
    /// - Parameters:
    ///   - view: View to navigate to.
    ///   - binding: Only navigates when this condition is `true`.
    func navigate(to view: NewView, when binding: Binding) -> some View {
        NavigationView {
            ZStack {
                self
                    .navigationBarTitle("")
                    .navigationBarHidden(true)

                NavigationLink(
                    destination: view
                        .navigationBarTitle("")
                        .navigationBarHidden(true),
                    isActive: binding
                ) {
                    EmptyView()
                }
            }
        }
    }
}
