How to change a navigationViewStyle of a NavigationView?

If you want to run your app on iPad you should know about a navigationViewStyle. Set it to DoubleColumnNavigationViewStyle() if you want a Split view style.

struct ContentView: View {
    
    var body: some View {
        
        NavigationView {
            
            NavigationLink(destination: DetailView()) {
                
                Text("Tap Me")
            }.navigationBarTitle(Text("ContentView"))
            
            Text("Hello, I'm a Detail View")
        }.navigationViewStyle(DoubleColumnNavigationViewStyle())
        
        
    }
    
}

If you want it to show in a One-View way on iPad, use the StackNavigationViewStyle() instead. Check it on canvas or in an iPad simulator.

.navigationViewStyle(StackNavigationViewStyle())
