Is there any way of using a gradient as foregroundColor of Text in SwiftUI?

You can assign any gradient or other type of view as a self-size mask like:

Text("Gradient is on FIRE !!!")
    .selfSizeMask(
        LinearGradient(
            gradient: Gradient(colors: [.red, .yellow]),
            startPoint: .bottom,
            endPoint: .top)
    )

with this simple tiny extension:

extension View {
    func selfSizeMask(_ mask: T) -> some View {
        ZStack {
            self.opacity(0)
            mask.mask(self)
        }.fixedSize()
    }
}
