git clone https://github.com/SDWebImage/SDWebImage.git 5.21.7 · 7mo ago 🔥 on GitHub Trending today

Objective-C library for asynchronously downloading and caching images, with UIImageView, UIButton, and MKAnnotationView categories.

Why you might care

Use it on iOS, macOS, watchOS, or visionOS to load remote images with memory and disk caching, background decoding, and progressive/animated image support. It adds pluggable image coders (WebP, HEIF, JPEG-XL) and transformations, and guarantees duplicate URLs aren't re-downloaded and bogus URLs aren't retried endlessly.
