Binding ViewModel and TextFields with SwiftUI

Question

I'm looking for the best way to create a bind between textfields and ViewModel. At the moment I'm creating a @State for each textfield and I'm manually sending the value from textfield to the viewModel properties when needed. I'm pretty sure this is not the best way to go... Is there a way to bind the TextField with the ViewModel property?

This is my current code:

struct SigninView: View {
    @State var username:String = ""
    @State var password:String = ""

    var viewModel:SignInViewModel

    var body: some View {
        VStack(alignment: .leading, spacing: 15.0){

            DefaultTextField(placeholder: "username", value: $username)
            DefaultTextField(placeholder: "password", value: $password)

            Spacer()

            FillButton(title:"Sign In"){
                ///// IS THIS CORRECT?
                self.viewModel.email = self.username
                self.viewModel.password = self.password
                //------------------
                self.viewModel.signin()
            }
        }.padding()
    }
}

The view model is something like:

class SignInViewModel:ObservableObject{

    var username:String? = nil
    var password:String? = nil

I think we can simplify it with below code.

class SignInViewModel: ObservableObject{
    @Published var username = ""
    @Published var password = ""
}


struct SigninView: View {
    @ObservedObject var viewModel = SignInViewModel()

    var body: some View {
        VStack(alignment: .leading, spacing: 15.0){

            TextField("username", text: $viewModel.username)
            TextField("password", text: $viewModel.password)

            Spacer()

            Button("Sign In"){
                print("User: \(self.viewModel.username)")
                print("Pass: \(self.viewModel.password)")
            }
        }.padding()
    }
}
