Mesh gradients are a feature in SwiftUI that allow you to create complex and visually appealing color effects. They work by defining a grid of points, each with an associated color. SwiftUI interpolates between these colors to create a smooth gradient across the grid. You can manipulate the x and y coordinates of these points to change the gradient's appearance, making it possible to create dynamic and decorative visual effects. Mesh gradients can be used for purely aesthetic purposes or to signal changes in your app through animations.
For more details, you can refer to the session Create custom visual effects with SwiftUI (08:15).
