## Discussion

Discussion Use navigationBarTitle(_:) to set the title of the navigation bar. This modifier only takes effect when this view is inside of and visible within a NavigationView. The example below shows setting the title of the navigation bar using a Text view: struct FlavorView: View {     let items = ["Chocolate", "Vanilla", "Strawberry", "Mint Chip",                  "Pistachio"]     var body: some View {         NavigationView {             List(items, id: \.self) {                 Text($0)             }             .navigationBarTitle(Text("Today's Flavors"))         }     } }
