YYImage

Why we included this project

iOS developers who need animated images in their apps will find YYImage a practical, battle-tested option. It decodes and encodes animated WebP, APNG, and GIF files and plays them back through classes that drop straight into the standard UIImage and UIImageView APIs, with support for a range of still formats as well. Frame-based and sprite-sheet animation are covered too, and a dynamic memory buffer keeps memory use down when playing long animations. Because it plugs directly into UIKit's image classes, wiring it into an existing project is straightforward, and the documented protocol lets you add custom animation types. If you want animated image support without reimplementing format handling yourself, this is a solid pick.
