Want to contribute? Some suggestions for areas we need help with

Hey all, if you feel like contributing to the Home Assistant Apple platform Apps I am very happy to help you get started, and below you will find really helpful topics that can unlock the project for many features that are difficult to implement now due to the project structure. Here it goes:

1. Migrate UIKit views to SwiftUI
2. Remove Eureka dependency (and migrate screens to SwiftUI as well)
3. Make the app compile as a native Mac App instead of a Mac catalyst. (This will require many changes in the App, feel free to try it out and list the tasks needed)

This last one will fix many many annoying issues we have related to the Mac App, such as WebRTC not working, copy and paste and scrolling often not working as well.

The migration from UIKit to SwiftUI is also a nice starting point, since features are already done, so you can focus on the UI and at the same time learn how that feature was implemented, slowly learning how the project is structured.

Want to contribute to something else? That's awesome as well! Looking forward to reviewing your PR.

Thank you all in advance!

Hi @bgoncal, I started looking into this.

Can you offer a couple of examples of screens that were once built using Eureka and that now are built in SwiftUI? This could greatly reduce the time spent looking for patterns to follow.

Thanks!
