Directly set any UIImage as text background with a simple API, as shown in the usage example where `backgroundImage` is assigned with minimal code.
Minimal overhead with support for CocoaPods and Carthage, making setup straightforward without adding bloat to the project.
Includes an `animate()` method that provides quick text effects out of the box, reducing the need for custom animation code.
Supports any UIFont, allowing developers to style text with custom fonts like 'Starjedi', as demonstrated in the README example.
Compatible only with Swift 2, which is severely outdated and not supported in current Xcode versions or modern iOS development workflows.
The README is brief with only basic setup and a simple example, lacking advanced usage guides, troubleshooting, or API details.
The `animate()` method is simplistic with no exposed parameters for customization, such as duration, easing, or direction, limiting creative control.
