I am trying to create different shapes on a card based on the card type in Swiftui.

import SwiftUI
let shapes: [any Shape] = [Circle(), Rectangle(), Ellipse()]

struct CardView: View {
    var body: some View {
        VStack {
            ForEach(0..<shapes.count) { index in
                applyStyling(on: shapes[index])
            }
        }
    }
    
    func applyStyling(on shape: some Shape) -> some View {
        shape.fill(.yellow)
    }
}

But I am getting Type 'any Shape' cannot conform to 'Shape' on applyStyling(on: shapes[index]) line

I understand that when using any Shape it loses the type-specific information on the underlined Shape type, but I guess the same is being done in the example from WWDC Embrace Swift generics at 25:20 timestamp

In reality, I wanted to store all the drawable shapes in an array and then based on the shape type which I can pass to the CardView the appropriate Shape will be drawn.

Can someone guide me on how I can achieve this?

PS: I have already tried the AnyShape trick but that trick is too complicated and not very elegant so I believe there has to be a simpler to achieve this or to structure my code in a different way that handles this problem.
