The Swift Charts sessions at WWDC 2024 focused on the new capabilities of Swift Charts, particularly in the area of vectorized and function plots. The session titled "Swift Charts: Vectorized and function plots" covered several key topics:
-
Function Plots: This segment introduced new line and area plots for visualizing mathematical functions, allowing developers to plot functions beyond just data. It also covered how to handle piecewise functions and parametric functions. You can find more details in the Swift Charts: Vectorized and function plots (01:01) session.
-
Vectorized Plots: This part of the session discussed the new vectorized plotting APIs that support visualizing larger datasets more efficiently. It also provided best practices for optimizing performance when dealing with large data sets. More information is available in the Swift Charts: Vectorized and function plots (06:48) session.
These sessions are designed to help developers create more informative, accessible, and efficient visualizations using SwiftUI.
