A Swift UIImageView subclass for adding, editing, rotating, and resizing multiline text on images before rendering.
StickerTextView is a Swift library that provides a UIImageView subclass for adding editable text overlays to images within iOS apps. It solves the problem of implementing interactive text editing—like adding captions, watermarks, or annotations—directly on images without needing complex custom UI or external editing tools.
iOS developers building apps that require in-app image annotation, meme creation, photo editing, or any feature where users need to add and manipulate text on images.
Developers choose StickerTextView for its simplicity, native Swift implementation, and comprehensive feature set—offering multiline text support, one-finger manipulation, and full styling control in a single, easy-to-integrate component.

Enables rotate and resize with one-finger gestures, making text manipulation smooth and user-friendly. The README highlights 'Rotate, resize the text with one finger' as a core feature.
Supports a wide range of attributes including color, font, alignment, shadow, and line spacing. The README lists key properties like textColor, fontName, and textShadowOffset for customization.
Simple subclassing of UIImageView and methods like addLabel() allow quick setup. The README shows how to subclass to JLStickerImageView and add labels with minimal code.
Handles the entire process of rendering styled text onto the underlying image. The README provides a renderTextOnView method to save the final composition easily.
Key functions like proportional scaling are not fully implemented, as admitted in the README: 'This function is not complete yet, I just make it to fit my requirement.'
To get the latest version, manual installation is required, which can be cumbersome compared to stable CocoaPods integration. The README states: 'To get the latest version, please install manually.'
Customizing UI elements like close and rotate buttons requires accessing internal properties (e.g., closeView, rotateView), which may break with updates. The README shows this but doesn't guarantee stability.
