The equivalent of using a .semanticGroup accessibilityContainerType in UIKit, would be to use the .accessibilityElement(children: ) modifier with the .contain option in SwiftUI. Here's a refresher with some use-cases: https://x.com/dadederk/status/1558790851496742914

In UIKit, to create an adjustable component we need to add the adjustable trait and override both accessibilityIncrement() and accessibilityDecrement(). In SwiftUI, everything you need is bundled in the accessibilityAdjustableAction(_:) modifier.

Grouping elements in SwiftUI is extremely easy! You can use the .accessibility(children: .combine) modifier. And that's it! It merges properties. For example, generating an accessibility label by joining the children's ones, separated by commas.

If an image does not convey additional information, maybe it's just used to make the UI look more attractive, it makes sense for VoiceOver to skip it. UIKit: set isAccessibilityElement to false. SwiftUI: create a decorative image explicitly.

SwiftUI has equivalent accessibility modifiers for some of UIAccessibility's properties in UIKit. Same basic concepts apply.
