This is just a proof of concept to see how feasible it would be to reuse view models across the SwiftUI and UIKit SDK.

Spoiler Alert: It looks pretty promising 👌

We would need to make sure we do not import UIKit or SwiftUI in the ViewModels to make sure they do not depend on any UI framework
We would need to expose a constructor to replace the "@Injected" dependencies from SwiftUI
We would need to make the View Models, Formatters and all presentation logic part of LLC or create an additional framework
Maybe even move SwiftUI to this repo?

Closing this one for now. But the PoC was a success and for sure validated that we can share view models between SwiftUI and UIKit in the future.
