Component - Implicit animations (.animation modifier)

This UI component demonstrates how to smoothly animate changes in a view's properties using the .animation modifier in SwiftUI. When a user taps the button, the circle changes size and color with a gentle animation, making the interaction feel natural and lively.

└── Button
The main layout is a vertical stack (VStack) containing two children: a Circle shape and a Button below it. The Circle changes its size and color when the button is tapped. The Button triggers the state change that causes the animation.
