SpriteKit is Apple's 2D graphics and animation framework for building games and graphically rich apps on iOS, macOS, and tvOS. It provides built-in support for sprite animation, physics simulation, particle effects, and scene management, letting developers render and animate 2D content efficiently using the GPU. It's commonly used by indie and studio developers building lightweight 2D games for Apple platforms as an alternative to third-party engines like Unity.
