Property wrappers in Swift are a feature that allows developers to encapsulate logic for managing stored values. They work by intercepting the calls to read and write a property, implementing reusable logic that can be applied to a property with a simple annotation. This feature helps in building expressive, type-safe APIs and reducing boilerplate code in applications. For example, the @Argument
property wrapper from the Swift ArgumentParser package can be applied to a property to designate that it stores the value of a command line argument.
