# SwiftUI Visual Effects
System materials in SwiftUI
View modifiers that wrap `UIVisualEffectView` and all of its associated objects, with environment integration for storing effect styles. Vibrancy effects will always use the current blur effect style for proper vibrancy-effect layering.
### Adding and Styling a Blur Effect
```swift
YourView()
// Add a blur effect.
.blurEffect()
// Style the blur effect.
.blurEffectStyle(.systemChromeMaterial)
```
### Adding and Styling a Vibrancy Effect
```swift
YourView()
// Add a vibrancy effect.
.vibrancyEffect()
// Style the vibrancy effect.
.vibrancyEffectStyle(.fill)
```
### Adding and Styling Blur and Vibrancy Effects
```swift
ZStack {
YourBackgroundContent()
// Add a blur effect.
.blurEffect()
YourForegroundContent()
// Add a vibrancy effect.
.vibrancyEffect()
}
// Set the style for blur effects within this view.
.blurEffectStyle(.systemChromeMaterial)
// Set the style for vibrancy effects within this view.
.vibrancyEffectStyle(.fill)
```
## Adding Blur and Vibrancy Effects Directly to a View
Adding both a blur and vibrancy effect directly to a view only displays the blur effect.
If you’d like to blur the view’s background content, while adding vibrancy to the view’s foreground content, use the `.background()` modifier, and pass `BlurEffect()` as its argument. Although `BlurEffect` may not be very Apple-like, it’s better than the `.blurEffect()` modifier implementation below.
```swift
YourView()
.vibrancyEffect()
.background(BlurEffect())
// as opposed to:
YourView()
.vibrancyEffect()
.background(
Color.clear
.blurEffect()
)
```
