+Layers is a SwiftUI library for creating layered user interfaces. It's a simple and easy to use solution for creating smooth and performant animations between modal views.
+
+Layers as it stands is not a perfect solution, but it's a start. Which is why I'm releasing it as an open source project, for the community to build upon.
+
+If you'd like to contribute to Layers feel free to open an issue if you have any suggestions.
