Swift - Infinite Scrolling for UIScrollView with an embedded UIStackView
Question
Someone helped with the below code to achieve what I needed to do here:-
Whilst keeping the existing behaviour intact, I would like some assistance please to modify probably just the scrollViewDidScroll method to allow for an infinite smooth scrolling so when you reach the fourth / last item as you swipe right it will smoothly transition to the first page and likewise if you keep swiping back to the left as you reach the first and swipe left again the last item will be displayed, if you know what I mean, I tried doing it but was playing up a bit. Thank you

Here is one way to do this...
Since the scroll view has paging enabled, we are able to have only 3 views "pages" in the scroll view at a time.
Assuming 4 total "pages"...
- Start with pages 4, 1, 2
- set scroll content offset x so the center page is visible
- if we scroll to the next page, shift the views to 1, 2, 3 and again set scroll content offset x so the center page is visible
- if we scroll to the previous page, shift the views to 3, 4, 1 and again set scroll content offset x so the center page is visible
This approach loads all "page" view controllers as child view controllers. If there we end up with, say, 20 "pages" - particularly if they are "heavy" (lots of subviews, code, etc) - we would want to load controllers only when we need to show them, and unload them when they're removed from the 3 "scroll slots."
struct MyPage Defines a page as a view controller and an index page number:
struct MyPage {
var vc: UIViewController!
var pageNumber: Int!
}

v.clipsToBounds = true
return v

Notes:
This is example code only and should not be considered "production ready."
If you have only 1 or 2 "pages" this will crash.
If you try this with a couple dozen "pages" you'll likely hit memory problems.
Edit based on comments...
Took a look at your project, and I see you're using a UICollectionView instead.
I think the issue is that you're mixing / matching your viewModel.pages - which has 4 elements, and your itemsWithBoundries - which has 6 elements. Trying to reconcile that is pretty messy.
So... I'm going to suggest a different, older approach.
For the collection view's numberOfItemsInSection , I'm going to return 10,000.
In cellForItemAt , I'll use indexPath.item % viewModel.pages.count (the remainder / modulo operator) to return a cell in the viewModel.pages[0...3] range.
Same idea in scrollViewDidScroll ... get the actual cell item index % number of pages to get Zero thru 3.
To achieve "infinite scrolling" in both directions, I'll start with scrolling the collection view to item 5,000 (code includes adjusting that if the number of pages is not equally divisible into 5,000). It's pretty unlikely a user would scroll 5,000 pages in either direction to reach the "end."
I edited your Test App with that approach and posted it to GitHub: https://github.com/DonMag/Test-App so you can see the changes I made.
