    Power efficient GIF display for SwiftUI

  • FLAnimatedImage

    Performant animated GIF engine for iOS

    Currently, Apple doesn't offer an API to display animated GIF images in SwiftUI out of the box. So, we have to either rely on third-party libraries or build our own solution. In the UIKit realm, Flipboard offers [FLAnimatedImage](https://github.com/Flipboard/FLAnimatedImage), one of the most robust and performant solutions to display GIFs in iOS. This solution has been battle-tested for many years in big-scale apps such as Facebook, Instagram, and Slack.

  • WorkOS
