How to programatically select row in List in SwiftUI

Issue #711

List has a selection parameter where we can pass selection binding. As we can see here selection is of type optional Binding<Set<SelectionValue>>? where SelectionValue is any thing conforming to Hasable

@available(iOS 13.0, macOS 10.15, tvOS 13.0, watchOS 6.0, *)
public struct List<SelectionValue, Content> : View where SelectionValue : Hashable, Content : View {
    @available(watchOS, unavailable)
    public init(selection: Binding<Set<SelectionValue>>?, @ViewBuilder content: () -> Content)

So we can programatically control selection by tagging row with our own Tag

struct SideView: View {
    enum Tag: String, Hashable {
        case all
        case settings
    }

    @State
    var selection: Tag? = .all

    var body: some View {
        List {
            all
                .tag(Tag.all)
            categories
            settings
                .tag(Tag.settings)
        }
    }
}
