+<overview>
+SwiftUI navigation has evolved significantly with NavigationStack (iOS 16+) replacing the deprecated NavigationView. The modern navigation model provides type-safe, programmatic control while supporting both user-driven and code-driven navigation patterns.
+
+**Key insight:** NavigationStack with NavigationPath provides a stack-based navigation system where you can programmatically manipulate the navigation hierarchy while SwiftUI keeps the UI in sync automatically.

+## NavigationStack
+
+NavigationStack manages a stack of views with type-safe routing. It replaces the deprecated NavigationView and provides better programmatic control.
+
+**Basic usage with NavigationLink:**
+```swift
+struct ContentView: View {
+    var body: some View {
+        NavigationStack {
+            List {
+                NavigationLink("Details", value: "details")
+                NavigationLink("Settings", value: "settings")
+            }
+            .navigationTitle("Home")
+            .navigationDestination(for: String.self) { value in
+                Text("Showing: \(value)")
+            }
+        }
+    }
+}
+```
+
+**With NavigationPath for programmatic navigation:**
+```swift
+struct ContentView: View {
+    @State private var path = NavigationPath()
+
+    var body: some View {
+        NavigationStack(path: $path) {
+            VStack {
+                Button("Go to Details") {
+                    path.append("details")
+                }
+
+                Button("Go Deep (3 levels)") {
+                    path.append("level1")
+                    path.append("level2")
+                    path.append("level3")
+                }
+            }
+            .navigationTitle("Home")
+            .navigationDestination(for: String.self) { value in
+                DetailView(value: value, path: $path)
+            }
+        }
+    }
+}
+
+struct DetailView: View {
+    let value: String
+    @Binding var path: NavigationPath
+
+    var body: some View {
+        VStack {
+            Text("Showing: \(value)")
+
+            Button("Pop to Root") {
+                path = NavigationPath()
+            }
+        }
+    }
+}
+```
+
+**navigationDestination modifier:**
+
+The navigationDestination modifier enables type-based routing. You can register multiple destination handlers for different data types:
+
+```swift
+struct MultiTypeNavigation: View {
+    @State private var path = NavigationPath()
+
+    var body: some View {
+        NavigationStack(path: $path) {
+            List {
+                Button("Show User") {
+                    path.append(User(id: 1, name: "Alice"))
+                }
+
+                Button("Show Product") {
+                    path.append(Product(id: 100, title: "iPhone"))
+                }
+            }
+            .navigationDestination(for: User.self) { user in
+                UserDetailView(user: user)
+            }
+            .navigationDestination(for: Product.self) { product in
+                ProductDetailView(product: product)
+            }
+        }
+    }
+}
+
+struct User: Hashable, Codable {
+    let id: Int
+    let name: String
+}
+
+struct Product: Hashable, Codable {
+    let id: Int
+    let title: String
+}
+```
+
+**Key rules:**
+- Place navigationDestination inside NavigationStack, not on child views
+- Don't place navigationDestination on lazy containers (List, ScrollView, LazyVStack)
+- Top-level navigationDestination always overrides lower ones for the same type
+- Each destination type must be Hashable
+
+**Navigation state in @Observable:**
+```swift
+import Observation
+
+@Observable
+class NavigationManager {
+    var path = NavigationPath()
+
+    func push(_ destination: Destination) {
+        path.append(destination)
+    }
+
+    func pop() {
+        guard !path.isEmpty else { return }
+        path.removeLast()
+    }
+
+    func popToRoot() {
+        path = NavigationPath()
+    }
+}
+
+enum Destination: Hashable {
+    case detail(id: Int)
+    case settings
+    case profile
+}
+
+struct AppView: View {
+    @State private var navigation = NavigationManager()
+
+    var body: some View {
+        @Bindable var nav = navigation
+
+        NavigationStack(path: $nav.path) {
+            List {
+                Button("Details") {
+                    navigation.push(.detail(id: 1))
+                }
+
+                Button("Settings") {
+                    navigation.push(.settings)
+                }
+            }
+            .navigationDestination(for: Destination.self) { destination in
+                switch destination {
+                case .detail(let id):
+                    DetailView(id: id, navigation: navigation)
+                case .settings:
+                    SettingsView(navigation: navigation)
+                case .profile:
+                    ProfileView(navigation: navigation)
+                }
+            }
+        }
+    }
+}
+```
+</navigation_stack>
+
+<programmatic_navigation>
+## Programmatic Navigation
+
+NavigationPath provides programmatic control over the navigation stack without requiring NavigationLink user interaction.
+
+**Push to path:**
+```swift
+// Push single destination
+path.append(DetailDestination.item(id: 123))
+
+// Push multiple levels at once
+path.append(contentsOf: [screen1, screen2, screen3])
+```
+
+**Pop operations:**
+```swift
+// Pop one level
+path.removeLast()
+
+// Pop multiple levels
+path.removeLast(2)
+
+// Pop to root (clear entire stack)
+path = NavigationPath()
+
+// Conditional pop
+if path.count > 0 {
+    path.removeLast()
+}
+```
+
+**Deep navigation example:**
+```swift
+@Observable
+class Router {
+    var path = NavigationPath()
+
+    func navigateToUserPosts(userId: Int, postId: Int) {
+        // Navigate through multiple screens
+        path.append(Route.userDetail(userId))
+        path.append(Route.userPosts(userId))
+        path.append(Route.postDetail(postId))
+    }
+
+    func popToUserDetail() {
+        // Remove specific number of levels
+        if path.count >= 2 {
+            path.removeLast(2)
+        }
+    }
+}
+
+enum Route: Hashable {
+    case userDetail(Int)
+    case userPosts(Int)
+    case postDetail(Int)
+}
+```
+
+**NavigationPath count and inspection:**
+```swift
+struct NavigationDebugView: View {
+    @State private var path = NavigationPath()
+
+    var body: some View {
+        NavigationStack(path: $path) {
+            VStack {
+                Text("Stack depth: \(path.count)")
+
+                Button("Push") {
+                    path.append("Level \(path.count + 1)")
+                }
+
+                Button("Pop") {
+                    if !path.isEmpty {
+                        path.removeLast()
+                    }
+                }
+
+                Button("Pop to Root") {
+                    path = NavigationPath()
+                }
+            }
+            .navigationDestination(for: String.self) { value in
+                Text(value)
+            }
+        }
+    }
+}
+```

+<sheets_and_covers>
+## Sheet and FullScreenCover
+
+Sheets present modal content on top of the current view. They are not part of the NavigationStack hierarchy.
+
+**Basic sheet with boolean:**
+```swift
+struct SheetExample: View {
+    @State private var showingSheet = false
+
+    var body: some View {
+        Button("Show Sheet") {
+            showingSheet = true
+        }
+        .sheet(isPresented: $showingSheet) {
+            SheetContentView()
+        }
+    }
+}
+
+struct SheetContentView: View {
+    @Environment(\.dismiss) private var dismiss
+
+    var body: some View {
+        NavigationStack {
+            VStack {
+                Text("Sheet Content")
+                Button("Close") {
+                    dismiss()
+                }
+            }
+            .navigationTitle("Modal")
+            .toolbar {
+                ToolbarItem(placement: .cancellationAction) {
+                    Button("Cancel") {
+                        dismiss()
+                    }
+                }
+            }
+        }
+    }
+}
+```
+
+**Item-based presentation (type-safe, recommended):**
+```swift
+struct ItemSheet: View {
+    @State private var selectedUser: User?
+
+    var body: some View {
+        List(users) { user in
+            Button(user.name) {
+                selectedUser = user
+            }
+        }
+        .sheet(item: $selectedUser) { user in
+            UserDetailSheet(user: user)
+        }
+    }
+}
+
+struct User: Identifiable {

+
+struct UserDetailSheet: View {
+    let user: User
+    @Environment(\.dismiss) private var dismiss
+
+    var body: some View {
+        NavigationStack {
+            VStack {
+                Text("User: \(user.name)")
+            }
+            .navigationTitle(user.name)
+            .toolbar {
+                ToolbarItem(placement: .confirmationAction) {
+                    Button("Done") {
+                        dismiss()
+                    }
+                }
+            }
+        }
+    }
+}
+```
+
+**FullScreenCover:**
+```swift
+struct FullScreenExample: View {
+    @State private var showingFullScreen = false
+
+    var body: some View {
+        Button("Show Full Screen") {
+            showingFullScreen = true
+        }
+        .fullScreenCover(isPresented: $showingFullScreen) {

+    }
+}
+
+struct FullScreenContentView: View {

+                Text("Full Screen Content")
+                    .font(.largeTitle)
+            }
+            .toolbar {
+                ToolbarItem(placement: .cancellationAction) {
+                    Button("Close") {

+                }
+            }
+        }
+    }
+}
+```
+
+**Presentation detents (iOS 16+):**
+```swift
+struct DetentSheet: View {
+    @State private var showingSheet = false
+    @State private var selectedDetent: PresentationDetent = .medium
+
+    var body: some View {

+                    selection: $selectedDetent
+                )
+                .presentationDragIndicator(.visible)
+                .presentationBackgroundInteraction(.enabled(upThrough: .medium))
+        }
+    }
+}
+
+struct SheetWithDetents: View {

+
+**Dismiss from presented view:**
+```swift
+struct DismissExample: View {
+    @Environment(\.dismiss) private var dismiss
+
+    var body: some View {

+
+<tab_view>
+## TabView
+
+TabView presents multiple independent navigation hierarchies. Each tab typically contains its own NavigationStack.
+
+**Basic TabView:**
+```swift
+struct TabExample: View {
+    var body: some View {
+        TabView {
+            HomeView()
+                .tabItem {
+                    Label("Home", systemImage: "house")
+                }
+
+            SearchView()
+                .tabItem {
+                    Label("Search", systemImage: "magnifyingglass")
+                }
+
+            ProfileView()
+                .tabItem {
+                    Label("Profile", systemImage: "person")
+                }
+        }
+    }
+}
+
+struct HomeView: View {
+    var body: some View {
+        NavigationStack {
+            List {
+                Text("Home Content")
+            }
+            .navigationTitle("Home")
+        }
+    }
+}
+```
+
+**Programmatic tab selection:**
+```swift
+struct ProgrammaticTabView: View {
+    @State private var selectedTab = Tab.home
+
+    var body: some View {
+        TabView(selection: $selectedTab) {
+            HomeView()
+                .tabItem {
+                    Label("Home", systemImage: "house")
+                }
+                .tag(Tab.home)
+
+            SearchView()
+                .tabItem {

+                .tag(Tab.search)
+
+            ProfileView()
+                .tabItem {
+                    Label("Profile", systemImage: "person")
+                }
+                .tag(Tab.profile)
+        }
+        .onChange(of: selectedTab) { oldValue, newValue in
+            print("Tab changed from \(oldValue) to \(newValue)")
+        }
+    }
+}
+
+enum Tab {
+    case home
+    case search
+    case profile
+}
+```
+
+**Each tab with independent NavigationStack:**
+```swift
+struct IndependentTabStacks: View {
+    @State private var homeNavPath = NavigationPath()
+    @State private var searchNavPath = NavigationPath()
+
+    var body: some View {
+        TabView {
+            NavigationStack(path: $homeNavPath) {

+                    .navigationDestination(for: HomeDestination.self) { destination in
+                        // Home-specific destinations
+                        Text("Home destination")
+                    }
+            }
+            .tabItem {
+                Label("Home", systemImage: "house")
+            }
+
+            NavigationStack(path: $searchNavPath) {
+                SearchRootView()
+                    .navigationDestination(for: SearchDestination.self) { destination in

+                    }
+            }
+            .tabItem {
+                Label("Search", systemImage: "magnifyingglass")

+        }
+    }
+}
+
+enum HomeDestination: Hashable {
+    case detail(Int)
+}
+
+enum SearchDestination: Hashable {
+    case results(String)
+}
+```
+
+**iOS 18 Tab API:**
+```swift
+// iOS 18 introduces new Tab syntax with better customization

+    }
+}
+
+enum TabIdentifier: Hashable {

+    case search
+    case profile

+```
+
+**Tab badges:**
+```swift
+struct BadgedTabs: View {
+    @State private var unreadCount = 3
+
+    var body: some View {
+        TabView {
+            HomeView()
+                .tabItem {
+                    Label("Home", systemImage: "house")
+                }
+
+            MessagesView()
+                .tabItem {
+                    Label("Messages", systemImage: "message")
+                }
+                .badge(unreadCount)
+
+            ProfileView()
+                .tabItem {
+                    Label("Profile", systemImage: "person")
+                }
+        }
+    }
+}
+```
+
+**Platform differences:**
+- **iOS:** Bottom tabs with up to 5 visible items (more creates "More" tab)
+- **macOS:** Top tabs or sidebar style
+- **iPadOS:** Can transform to sidebar with .tabViewStyle(.sidebarAdaptable)
+- **watchOS:** PageTabViewStyle (swipeable pages)
+</tab_view>

+<deep_linking>
+## Deep Linking
+
+Deep linking enables opening your app to specific screens via URLs, supporting both custom URL schemes and Universal Links.
+
+**URL handling with onOpenURL:**
+```swift
+@main
+struct MyApp: App {
+    @State private var router = Router()
+
+    var body: some Scene {
+        WindowGroup {
+            ContentView()
+                .environment(router)
+                .onOpenURL { url in
+                    handleDeepLink(url)
+                }
+        }
+    }
+
+    private func handleDeepLink(_ url: URL) {
+        router.handleDeepLink(url)
+    }
+}
+
+@Observable
+class Router {
+    var path = NavigationPath()
+
+    func handleDeepLink(_ url: URL) {
+        // Parse URL and update navigation
+        guard let components = URLComponents(url: url, resolvingAgainstBaseURL: true) else {
+            return
+        }
+
+        // myapp://user/123
+        if components.scheme == "myapp",
+           components.host == "user",
+           let userId = components.path.split(separator: "/").first,
+           let id = Int(userId) {
+            navigateToUser(id: id)
+        }
+
+        // myapp://product/456/reviews
+        if components.scheme == "myapp",
+           components.host == "product" {
+            let pathComponents = components.path.split(separator: "/")
+            if let productId = pathComponents.first,
+               let id = Int(productId) {
+                navigateToProduct(id: id, showReviews: pathComponents.contains("reviews"))
+            }
+        }
+    }
+
+    func navigateToUser(id: Int) {
+        path = NavigationPath()  // Reset to root
+        path.append(Route.userDetail(id))
+    }
+
+    func navigateToProduct(id: Int, showReviews: Bool) {
+        path = NavigationPath()
+        path.append(Route.productDetail(id))
+        if showReviews {
+            path.append(Route.productReviews(id))
+        }
+    }
+}
+
+enum Route: Hashable {
+    case userDetail(Int)
+    case productDetail(Int)
+    case productReviews(Int)
+}
+```
+
+**Parsing URLs into navigation state:**
+```swift
+@Observable
+class DeepLinkRouter {
+    var path = NavigationPath()
+    var selectedTab: AppTab = .home
+
+    func handleDeepLink(_ url: URL) {
+        // Parse URL: myapp://tab/search?query=SwiftUI&filter=recent
+        guard let components = URLComponents(url: url, resolvingAgainstBaseURL: true) else {
+            return
+        }
+
+        // Handle tab switching
+        if components.host == "tab",
+           let tabName = components.path.split(separator: "/").first {
+            switchTab(String(tabName))
+        }
+
+        // Handle query parameters
+        let queryItems = components.queryItems ?? []
+        if let query = queryItems.first(where: { $0.name == "query" })?.value {
+            navigateToSearch(query: query)
+        }
+    }
+
+    private func switchTab(_ tab: String) {
+        switch tab {
+        case "home": selectedTab = .home
+        case "search": selectedTab = .search
+        case "profile": selectedTab = .profile
+        default: break
+        }
+    }
+
+    private func navigateToSearch(query: String) {
+        selectedTab = .search
+        path = NavigationPath()
+        path.append(SearchRoute.results(query))
+    }
+}
+
+enum AppTab {
+    case home
+    case search
+    case profile
+}
+
+enum SearchRoute: Hashable {
+    case results(String)
+}
+```
+
+**Universal Links setup:**
+
+1. **Associated Domains entitlement:** Add in Xcode project capabilities
+   - `applinks:example.com`
+
+2. **apple-app-site-association file:** Host at `https://example.com/.well-known/apple-app-site-association`
+```json
+{
+  "applinks": {
+    "apps": [],
+    "details": [
+      {
+        "appID": "TEAM_ID.com.example.myapp",
+        "paths": [
+          "/user/*",
+          "/product/*"
+        ]
+      }
+    ]
+  }
+}
+```
+
+3. **Handle in app:**
+```swift
+@main
+struct MyApp: App {
+    @State private var router = Router()
+
+    var body: some Scene {
+        WindowGroup {
+            ContentView()
+                .environment(router)
+                .onOpenURL { url in
+                    router.handleUniversalLink(url)
+                }
+        }
+    }
+}
+```
+
+**Custom URL schemes:**
+
+1. **Register scheme in Info.plist:**
+```xml
+<key>CFBundleURLTypes</key>
+<array>
+    <dict>
+        <key>CFBundleURLSchemes</key>
+        <array>
+            <string>myapp</string>
+        </array>
+        <key>CFBundleURLName</key>
+        <string>com.example.myapp</string>
+    </dict>
+</array>
+```
+
+2. **Handle custom scheme:**
+```swift
+struct ContentView: View {
+    @Environment(Router.self) private var router
+
+    var body: some View {
+        @Bindable var router = router
+
+        NavigationStack(path: $router.path) {
+            HomeView()
+                .navigationDestination(for: Route.self) { route in
+                    destinationView(for: route)
+                }
+        }
+    }
+
+    @ViewBuilder
+    func destinationView(for route: Route) -> some View {
+        switch route {
+        case .userDetail(let id):
+            UserDetailView(userId: id)
+        case .productDetail(let id):
+            ProductDetailView(productId: id)
+        case .productReviews(let id):
+            ProductReviewsView(productId: id)
+        }
+    }
+}
+```
+
+**Security considerations:**
+- Validate all incoming URLs
+- Sanitize parameters before using them
+- Don't expose sensitive functionality via deep links
+- Use Universal Links over custom URL schemes for production (more secure, unique)
+</deep_linking>
+
+<coordinator_pattern>
+## Coordinator Pattern (Optional)
+
+The Coordinator pattern centralizes navigation logic, decoupling it from views. Use when navigation becomes complex enough to justify the abstraction.
+
+**When to use:**
+- Complex navigation flows with many paths
+- Testable navigation logic separated from views
+- Multiple entry points to the same flow
+- Deep linking with complex routing
+
+**Implementation with @Observable:**
+```swift
+import Observation
+
+@Observable
+class AppCoordinator {
+    var path = NavigationPath()
+    var sheet: Sheet?
+    var fullScreenCover: Cover?
+

+
+    func push(_ destination: Destination) {
+        path.append(destination)
+    }
+
+    func pop() {

+
+**Trade-offs:**
+- **Pros:** Testable navigation logic, centralized flow control, easier deep linking, decoupled views
+- **Cons:** Additional abstraction layer, more code to maintain, can be overkill for simple apps
+
+**When NOT to use:** Simple apps with linear navigation, apps with fewer than 10 screens, prototypes
+</coordinator_pattern>
+
+<state_persistence>
+## Navigation State Persistence
+
+Enable state restoration so users return to where they left off when reopening your app.
+

+    }
+}
+
+enum Route: Hashable, Codable {

+
+**@SceneStorage for restoration:**

+```
+
+**Important notes:**
+- Only works if all types in NavigationPath are Codable
+- @SceneStorage cleared when user force-quits app
+- @AppStorage persists across launches but not recommended for large data
+- Test restoration thoroughly (background app, force quit, etc.)

+
+<decision_tree>
+## Choosing the Right Approach
+
+**Simple app with few screens:** NavigationStack with NavigationLink (user-driven navigation is sufficient)
+
+**Need programmatic navigation:** NavigationStack + NavigationPath in @Observable class stored in @State
+
+**Modal content (settings, forms, detail overlays):** .sheet() for dismissible modals, .fullScreenCover() for immersive content
+
+**Multiple independent sections:** TabView with separate NavigationStack per tab
+
+**Deep linking required:** onOpenURL + NavigationPath (parse URL and manipulate path programmatically)
+
+**Complex navigation flows (10+ screens, multiple entry points):** Coordinator pattern with @Observable coordinator managing NavigationPath and sheet/cover state
+
+**State restoration needed:** NavigationPath.codable with @SceneStorage or @AppStorage
+
+**Platform differences matter:** Check platform in architecture.md, use NavigationSplitView for iPad/macOS multi-column layouts
+</decision_tree>
+
+<anti_patterns>
+## What NOT to Do
+
+<anti_pattern name="Using NavigationView">
+**Problem:** NavigationView is deprecated in iOS 16+
+
+**Why it's bad:**
+- Missing modern features (programmatic navigation, type-safe routing)
+- Deprecated API that may be removed
+- NavigationStack is more performant and flexible
+
+**Instead:** Use NavigationStack
+```swift
+// WRONG
+NavigationView {
+    List { }
+}
+
+// RIGHT
+NavigationStack {
+    List { }
+}
+```
+</anti_pattern>
+
+<anti_pattern name="Boolean flags for navigation">
+**Problem:** Using @State var showDetail = false for each destination
+
+**Why it's bad:**
+- Doesn't scale beyond 2-3 screens
+- Loses type safety (what data does the destination need?)
+- Can't programmatically navigate deep
+- No navigation history
+
+**Instead:** Use navigationDestination with typed values
+```swift

+NavigationStack(path: $path) {

+<anti_pattern name="Storing NavigationPath in @State at wrong level">
+**Problem:** Storing NavigationPath in child views that need to access it
+
+**Why it's bad:**
+- Child views can't access parent's NavigationPath
+- Forces passing bindings through many levels
+- Breaks encapsulation
+
+**Instead:** Store in @Observable, pass via @Environment
+```swift
+// WRONG
+struct ChildView: View {
+    @State private var path = NavigationPath()  // Can't access parent's path
+}
+
+// RIGHT
+@Observable
+class Router {
+    var path = NavigationPath()
+}
+
+@main
+struct App: App {
+    @State private var router = Router()
+
+    var body: some Scene {
+        WindowGroup {
+            ContentView()
+                .environment(router)

+            router.path.append(destination)
+        }
+    }
+}
+```
+</anti_pattern>
+
+<anti_pattern name="Placing navigationDestination on lazy containers">
+**Problem:** Putting navigationDestination inside List, ScrollView, LazyVStack
+
+**Why it's bad:**
+- Destination closures may not be called
+- Lazy loading means modifiers aren't registered
+- Apple explicitly warns against this
+
+**Instead:** Place navigationDestination on NavigationStack or its immediate child
+```swift
+// WRONG
+NavigationStack {
+    List {
+        ForEach(items) { item in
+            NavigationLink(item.name, value: item)
+        }
+        .navigationDestination(for: Item.self) { item in  // ❌ Inside List
+            DetailView(item: item)
+        }
+    }
+}
+
+// RIGHT
+NavigationStack {
+    List {
+        ForEach(items) { item in
+            NavigationLink(item.name, value: item)
+        }

+        DetailView(item: item)
+    }
+}
+```
+</anti_pattern>
+
+<anti_pattern name="Mixing sheets with NavigationStack for sequential flows">
+**Problem:** Using sheets for multi-step flows that should be pushed
+
+**Why it's bad:**
+- Sheets are for modal content, not hierarchical navigation
+- Can't use back button (must dismiss)
+- Breaks user expectations
+- No navigation history
+
+**Instead:** Use NavigationStack for flows, sheets for modals
+```swift
+// WRONG - using sheets for sequential steps
+.sheet(isPresented: $showStep2) {
+    Step2View()
+        .sheet(isPresented: $showStep3) {
+            Step3View()  // Nested sheets
+        }
+}
+
+// RIGHT - NavigationStack for flows
+NavigationStack(path: $path) {
+    Step1View()
+        .navigationDestination(for: Step.self) { step in
+            switch step {
+            case .step2: Step2View()
+            case .step3: Step3View()
+            }
+        }
+}
+
+// RIGHT - Sheets for modals
+.sheet(isPresented: $showSettings) {
+    SettingsView()  // Self-contained modal
+}
+```
+</anti_pattern>
+
+<anti_pattern name="Not making navigation types Hashable">
+**Problem:** Forgetting to conform to Hashable for navigationDestination types
+
+**Why it's bad:**
+- Compiler error: navigationDestination requires Hashable
+- NavigationPath can't store non-Hashable types
+
+**Instead:** Always make route types Hashable (and Codable for persistence)
+```swift
+// WRONG
+struct Route {
+    let id: Int
+}
+
+// RIGHT
+struct Route: Hashable {
+    let id: Int
+}
+
+// EVEN BETTER - also Codable for persistence
+enum Route: Hashable, Codable {
+    case detail(id: Int)
+    case settings
+}
+```
+</anti_pattern>
+
+<anti_pattern name="Creating separate NavigationStack per TabView tab without independent state">
+**Problem:** Sharing NavigationPath between tabs
+
+**Why it's bad:**
+- Tabs should have independent navigation stacks
+- Switching tabs loses navigation context
+- Breaks expected tab behavior
+
+**Instead:** Each tab gets its own NavigationStack and path
+```swift
+// WRONG
+@State private var path = NavigationPath()
+
+TabView {
+    NavigationStack(path: $path) { HomeView() }
+        .tabItem { Label("Home", systemImage: "house") }
+
+    NavigationStack(path: $path) { SearchView() }  // ❌ Shared path
+        .tabItem { Label("Search", systemImage: "magnifyingglass") }
+}
+
+// RIGHT
+@State private var homePath = NavigationPath()
+@State private var searchPath = NavigationPath()
+
+TabView {
+    NavigationStack(path: $homePath) { HomeView() }
+        .tabItem { Label("Home", systemImage: "house") }
+
+    NavigationStack(path: $searchPath) { SearchView() }  // ✅ Independent
+        .tabItem { Label("Search", systemImage: "magnifyingglass") }
