So, I've been really enjoying `#Playground {}` while testing the new iOS 26 features.

As of this morning, after updating to Beta 4 they all say `Cannot find playgrounds` though.

I definitely installed iOS 26 Beta 4 simulator as well as metal runtime and I have tried selection both iOS and macOS in the selected device.

There was a known issue where Playgrounds may not work correctly without `import SwiftUI` in the same file. If you add it to this file does that work around this for now?

Thank you @jonathanpenn , that indeed solved it!

So I'll add `import SwiftUI` for now, even if the file doesn't use any, that fixes it.

Phew! Glad it works around this. That is definitely not something you should need to do. We're looking into it.
