Is there any way to use storyboard and SwiftUI in same iOS Xcode project?

Question

As Swift 5 introduces the SwiftUI framework for creating the views, but we are currently using the storyboard for UI design.

So I just wanted to know the procedure to use Storyboard and Swift UI in same iOS Single View Application.

I just started to look at the SwiftUI. Sharing a small example.

1. In the storyboard add Hosting View Controller
2. Subclass the UIHostingController with your own class (ChildHostingController)
3. ChildHostingController should look something like that:

import UIKit
import SwiftUI

struct SecondView: View {
  var body: some View {
      VStack {
          Text("Second View").font(.system(size: 36))
          Text("Loaded by SecondView").font(.system(size: 14))
      }
  }
}

class ChildHostingController: UIHostingController<SecondView> {

    required init?(coder: NSCoder) {
        super.init(coder: coder,rootView: SecondView());
    }

    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()
    }
}

For more details have a look at Custom UIHostingController
