# HomeContentID

An identifier for a piece of content that your extension provides.

## Declaration

```swift
struct HomeContentID
```

## Overview

Overview Defining identifiers as constants, instead of using strings, lets you reuse them and avoid typos. For example: extension HomeContentID {     static let batteryGuide: HomeContentID = "battery-guide" }

HomeAccessoryHelpGuide(id: .batteryGuide) {     BatteryGuideView() } You can also use a string literal anywhere an identifier is expected.
