## What it is
A UISlider subclass for iOS that displays the slider's live value in a customizable popup view above the thumb. It supports custom fonts, colors, animated track colors, NSNumberFormatter-based value display, and a dataSource for custom label text.

## Use cases
- show live value while dragging a slider in iOS
- display a popup tooltip over a UISlider thumb
- customize slider popup appearance with fonts and colors
- animate slider track color as value changes
- format slider values as percentages or units
- show custom strings for specific slider values

## When to choose
- building an iOS app in Objective-C or Swift that needs a value-displaying slider
- you want a drop-in UISlider replacement with minimal setup via CocoaPods
- you need customizable, animated popup value feedback on a slider

## When to avoid
- building for Android, web, or cross-platform frameworks
- you need a maintained, actively updated component (last release 2019)
- you need SwiftUI-native slider components
- you need progress bar popups (use the companion ASProgressPopupView instead)
