Image(_:bundle:) with conditional loading to prevent crashes when images might be missing. Wrap image loading in a conditional check: if Bundle.main.path(forResource: imageName, ofType: "png") != nil { Image(imageName) } to gracefully handle missing assets during development.This pattern creates a robust image loading system that gracefully handles missing assets by checking if the named image exists before attempting to display it, falling back to a system image when the custom asset isn't available.
struct SmartImageView: View {
let imageName: String
let fallbackSystemImage: String
var body: some View {
Group {
if let uiImage = UIImage(named: imageName) {
Image(uiImage: uiImage)
.resizable()
} else {
Image(systemName: fallbackSystemImage)
.foregroundStyle(.secondary)
}
}
.scaledToFit()
.frame(maxWidth: 100, maxHeight: 100)
}
}
// Usage
SmartImageView(
imageName: "custom-logo",
fallbackSystemImage: "photo.circle"
)Prevents runtime crashes from missing images, improves development workflow by showing fallbacks instead of blank spaces, and provides consistent UX even when assets are incomplete. The conditional rendering ensures your app remains stable across different build configurations and asset states.
