Open Source Swift Photo Management Software

Nuke ILS provides an efficient way to download and display images in your app. It's easy to learn and use thanks to a clear and concise API. Its architecture enables many powerful features while offering virtually unlimited possibilities for customization. Despite the number of features, the framework is lean and compiles in just under 3 seconds¹. Nuke has an automated test suite 2x the size of the codebase itself, ensuring excellent reliability. Every feature is carefully designed and optimized for performance. Fast LRU memory cache, native HTTP disk cache, and custom aggressive LRU disk cache. Customize image pipeline using built-in Alamofire, Gifu, FLAnimatedImage, WebP plugins or create your own. Enable progressive decoding with a single line of code. Nuke supports progressive JPEG out of the box, and WebP via a plugin built by the community. Automatically prefetch images ahead of time using either Preheat or native table and collection view prefetching APIs.
