If you have a lot of elements to display and animate, you should consider using the new vectorized plot API in Swift Charts. This API allows Swift Charts to process larger collections of data more efficiently by styling the entire collection of data points homogeneously. This approach is particularly useful for larger datasets where the entire plot is customized with the same modifiers and properties.

For more details, you can refer to the session Swift Charts: Vectorized and function plots.

Additionally, if you are working with text and need to animate individual elements, you can use the new text renderer API in SwiftUI. This API allows you to animate text at a granular level, such as line by line or even glyph by glyph, providing a high degree of customization for your animations.
