SwiftUI - grid / table with column headings

Question

I'm trying to achieve a design which essentially has the following layout:

So I need column headings for this table or grid view. The second column does not need a heading.

This seems like a job for a LazyVGrid or LazyHGrid, however I can't seem to find a solution which neatly includes headings like this - it all seems a bit hacky.

Wondering if I am missing a better way to achieve this. I could of course try and create VStacks within HStacks, but this just seems like something which should be accomplished more intelligently than this.

You can just pass the headers into the LazyVGrid before you show the content:

struct Item: Identifiable {
    let id = UUID()
    var item: String
    var description: String = "This is the item description"
    var quantity: Int = 1
    var price: Double = 0
}


struct ContentView: View {
    
    let data = [
        Item(item: "Image 1", quantity: 2, price: 1.99),
        Item(item: "Image 2", quantity: 1, price: 3.99),
        Item(item: "Image 3", quantity: 5, price: 9.99),
    ]
    
    let columns = [
        GridItem(.flexible(), alignment: .topLeading),
        GridItem(.flexible(minimum: 150), alignment: .topLeading),
        GridItem(.flexible(), alignment: .topLeading),
        GridItem(.flexible(), alignment: .topLeading),
    ]
    
    var body: some View {
        
        LazyVGrid(columns: columns) {
            
            // headers
            Group {
                Text("Item")
                Text("")
                Text("Qty")
                Text("Price")
            }
            .font(.headline)
            
            // content
            ForEach(data) { item in
                Text(item.item)
                Text(item.description)
                Text("\(item.quantity)")
                Text("$\(item.price, specifier: "%.2f")")
            }
        }
        .padding()
    }
}
