Property wrappers in Swift are a feature that encapsulates logic for managing stored values. They intercept calls to read and write a property, allowing for reusable logic to be applied with a simple annotation. This can help in creating type-safe APIs and reducing boilerplate code in applications. An example of a property wrapper is the @Argument property wrapper from the Swift ArgumentParser package, which designates that a property stores the value of a command-line argument.
