The WWDC session titled "Swift Charts: Vectorized and function plots" introduces new capabilities in Swift Charts, focusing on creating informative and accessible visualizations. This session highlights the ability to plot mathematical functions and introduces vectorized plotting APIs for handling larger datasets efficiently. Key features include:

  • Function Plots: Swift Charts now supports plotting mathematical functions, including line plots for single functions and area plots to visualize areas under or between curves. You can also plot parametric functions where x and y are defined in terms of a third variable, t.

  • Vectorized Plots: These new APIs allow for efficient visualization of large datasets by processing collections of data points in parallel. This is useful for creating extensive data visualizations like scatterplots or heat maps.

  • Customization and Accessibility: Swift Charts ensures that visualizations are accessible by default, with features like VoiceOver support. You can customize charts using modifiers to change styles, colors, and opacity for better legibility.

For more detailed insights, you can explore the session Swift Charts: Vectorized and function plots (01:01) which covers function plots, and Swift Charts: Vectorized and function plots (06:48) for vectorized plots.
