YYImage
An iOS image framework for displaying, encoding, and decoding animated WebP, APNG, GIF, and other image formats.
What is YYImage?
YYImage is an iOS image framework that extends the platform's native image handling capabilities to support animated and static formats like WebP, APNG, and GIF. It solves the problem of iOS's limited built-in support for modern image formats by providing efficient decoding, encoding, and display functionalities. The framework integrates seamlessly with UIKit, allowing developers to work with advanced image types without abandoning familiar APIs.
iOS developers building apps that require high-performance handling of animated images, modern formats like WebP and APNG, or custom animation types. It's particularly useful for applications dealing with stickers, emoji, media-rich content, or any scenario where efficient image memory management is critical.
Developers choose YYImage for its comprehensive format support, excellent performance with low memory usage, and full compatibility with UIKit. Its ability to handle progressive decoding, sprite sheets, and custom animations while being part of the larger YYKit ecosystem makes it a robust alternative to limited native solutions or heavier third-party libraries.
