Scroll to correct position in SwiftUI when a list item is clicked

Question

I've a SwiftUI ForEach loop which contains views that expand when clicked. Something similar to the view shown below.

struct ExpandingView: View {
    
    @State var isExpanded = false
    
    var body: some View {
        VStack {
            Text("Hello!")
            if isExpanded {
                Text("World")
            }
        }
        .onTapGesture {
            withAnimation {
                isExpanded.toggle()
            }
        }
    }
}

In theory, I can use the ScrollViewReader and scrollTo a particular position.

ScrollViewReader { view in
    ScrollView {
        ForEach(0...100, id: \.self) { id in
             ExpandingView()
                 .id(id)
                 .padding()                        
        }
    }
}

However, in practice, I'm not sure how to get the id from within the view (because onTapGesture is in the view) and propagate it up one level.

The other option is to have the onTapGesture in the ForEach loop, but then I'm not sure how to toggle the isExpanded flag for the correct view.

You can pass a ScrollViewProxy to row view and then you can now able to scroll.

struct ExpandingView: View {
    
    @State var isExpanded = false
    var id: Int
    var proxy: ScrollViewProxy
    var body: some View {
        VStack {
            Text("Hello!")
            if isExpanded {
                Text("World")
            }
        }
        .onTapGesture {
            withAnimation {
                isExpanded.toggle()
                proxy.scrollTo(id, anchor: .center)
            }
        }
    }
}

struct TestScrollView: View {
    var body: some View {
        ScrollViewReader { view in
            ScrollView {
                ForEach(0...100, id: \.self) { id in
                    ExpandingView(id: id, proxy: view)
                        .id(id)
                        .padding()
                }
            }
        }
    }
}
