What design patterns exist and which should I learn for SwiftUI?
Unfortunately there is no Apple made built-in way to unit-test SwiftUI views but we are using ViewInspector package for that and inject data / model through environmentObject or AppStorage or FetchRequest or whatever mechanism the view is using. Once you embrace ViewInspector, injecting data into the view is not a big deal.

Top swift libraries and why?
ViewInspector is a great library for testing SwiftUI views, without the heavy lifting of XCUI tests. You can quickly test view state changes, assert view colors or fonts etc. Almost any property can be tested, so that you know a view behaves as it should.
