how do meshgradients work?

Mesh gradients in SwiftUI are a new feature that allows you to create dynamic and visually appealing color effects. Here's how they work:

Grid of Points: Mesh gradients are made from a grid of points, where each point has a color associated with it.
Interpolation: SwiftUI interpolates between these colors on the grid to create a smooth color fill. Points that are closer together will have sharper color transitions.
Customization: You can move these points to create various color effects. By adjusting the position of control points, grid size, and color palette, you can achieve a wide range of visual effects.
Usage: Mesh gradients can be used for decorative purposes, to match a surface with imagery, or even to signal changes through animations.
