Can I use the metal shader code on the iPad Swift Playground?

Question

Can I use a special metal shader code on the iPad Swift Playground?

If so, how do I get the * .metal file or code (or its pre-compiled object) on the iPad for use with the playground and Swift code? Is Xcode required on a Mac?

(this question doesn’t use the built-in performance shaders, but also to run files on the playground on a Mac)
