Swift macros are a powerful feature introduced to enhance the flexibility and expressivity of Swift code. They act as compiler plugins, taking the syntax tree as input and returning transformed code as output. This allows developers to reduce repetitive boilerplate and create more expressive APIs.

For more detailed information on Swift macros, you can refer to the session titled "A Swift Tour: Explore Swift’s features and design" where macros are discussed. You can watch the relevant segment on Swift macros here (26:04).

Additionally, the session "What’s new in Swift" also touches on the introduction of macros and their role in reducing boilerplate code. You can explore this session for a broader understanding of the new features in Swift, including macros.
