What is the View protocol in SwiftUI?

Re-explain

The View protocol is the fundamental building block of SwiftUI. Any struct that conforms to View must implement a computed property called body that returns some View. This represents the content and behavior of the view.

protocol View {
    associatedtype Body : View
    var body: Self.Body { get }
}

The some View return type is an opaque type that allows the compiler to determine the actual return type while hiding implementation details from the caller.
