SwiftUI How to instantiate PreviewProvider when View requires @Binding in initializer

.constant is meant exactly for that:

/// Creates a binding with an immutable value.

struct AddProjectView: View {
    @Binding public var showModal: Bool
    var body: some View {
        return VStack {
            Text("Add Project View")
            Button("Dismiss") {
                self.showModal = false
            }
        }
    }
}

struct AddProjectView_Previews: PreviewProvider {
    static var previews: some View {
        AddProjectView(showModal: .constant(true))
    }
}

If you only need a constant value, use .constant(VALUE):

struct YourView_Previews: PreviewProvider {

    static var previews: some View {
        YourView(yourBindingVar: .constant(true))
    }

}

If you need a value that can be changed in the live preview, I like to use this helper class:

struct BindingProvider<StateT, Content: View>: View {

    @State private var state: StateT
    private var content: (_ binding: Binding<StateT>) -> Content

    init(_ initialState: StateT, @ViewBuilder content: @escaping (_ binding: Binding<StateT>) -> Content) {
        self.content = content
        self._state = State(initialValue: initialState)
    }

    var body: some View {
        self.content($state)
    }
}

Use it like so:

struct YourView_Previews: PreviewProvider {

    static var previews: some View {
        BindingProvider(false) { binding in
            YourView(yourBindingVar: binding)
        }
    }

}

This allows you to test changing the binding in the live preview.

You have to declare it as @State on your Preview.

struct AddProjectView_Previews: PreviewProvider {

     @State static var showModal: Bool = false

     static var previews: some View {
         AddProjectView(showModal: $showModal)
     }
}

Also remeber that it needs to be static as it is used in a static func.
