This is a custom implementation of some parts of SwiftUI which I could observe.

  // implicit animations during the next layout pass.
  //
  // I suppose that we should peek for every view that we want to animate
  // each mutation we made during the `body` call. It's important that we
  // peek during the side-effect of the `body` call because after that
  // the `withTransaction` free function will pop the transaction from the

Using this. I was trying to bridge SwiftUI Animation present in UIViewRepresentable update method to animate UIKit properly.

  public static func timingCurve(
    _ c0x: Double,
    _ c0y: Double,
    _ c1x: Double,
    _ c1y: Double,
    duration: Double = 0.35
  ) -> Animation {
    let curve = BezierTimingCurve(
      ax: 3*c0x-3*c1x+1,
      bx: -6*c0x+3*c1x,
      cx: 3*c0x,
      ay: 3*c0y-3*c1y+1,
      by: -6*c0y+3*c1y,
      cy: 3*c0y
    )
    let animation = BezierAnimation(duration: duration, curve: curve)
    let base = AnyAnimator(animation: animation)
    return Animation(base: base)
  }
