Set Background Gradient on Button in Swift

Question

I have no idea how to set the background gradient on a button (without making the background gradient an image). This is so different from Android.

Here\'s a class I

Answer 1

It's this simple:

import UIKit
class ActualGradientButton: UIButton {

    override func layoutSubviews() {
        super.layoutSubviews()
        gradientLayer.frame = bounds
    }

    private lazy var gradientLayer: CAGradientLayer = {
        let l = CAGradientLayer()
        l.frame = self.bounds
        l.colors = [UIColor.systemYellow.cgColor, UIColor.systemPink.cgColor]
        l.startPoint = CGPoint(x: 0, y: 0.5)
        l.endPoint = CGPoint(x: 1, y: 0.5)
        l.cornerRadius = 16
        layer.insertSublayer(l, at: 0)
        return l
    }()
}
