What is Kanvas?
Kanvas is an open-source iOS library that provides tools for adding effects, drawings, text, stickers, and creating GIFs from existing media or the camera. It solves the problem of integrating complex media creation and editing features into iOS apps without building them from scratch. Originally developed for the Tumblr iOS app, it offers a ready-to-use solution for camera, editing, and GIF-making functionalities.
iOS developers looking to add camera, media editing, or GIF creation features to their apps, particularly those building social media, content creation, or multimedia applications.
Developers choose Kanvas because it is a battle-tested library used in production by Tumblr, saving development time with its modular camera and editor components. Its open-source nature and customizable settings allow for flexibility and integration into various app workflows.
