Isn't Figma's "auto layout" just a GUI for a canvas-based implementation of flexbox? Likewise, HStack and VStack are ports of flexbox to SwiftUI.

- zackbrown 2y agoBoth Figma autolayout and HStack / VStack are careful subsets of flexbox; not quite the same thing. Consider whether a marble statue is "just a subset" of the block that contained it.
