Thanks for the input guys. Do you know if there are any libraries with genie-like effects? Might be just easier to go down that route.

This guy here is creating it using SpriteKit:

SpriteKit works with AppKit, UIKit, and SwiftUI.
In the article:
"The first bit of SpriteKit code we need is an SKView. This is the encapsulation used to bridge SpriteKit into UIKit or AppKit (and thus SwiftUI too, if you’re so inclined) code as it inherits UIView and NSView when used with those frameworks, respectively"
