An Objective-C framework for loading, caching, processing, displaying, and preheating images on iOS. It is no longer maintained; the author recommends its Swift successor, Nuke.

Use cases

  • load and display remote images in an iOS app
  • cache images with memory and HTTP caching layers
  • resize and crop images to fit view sizes
  • preheat images near the viewport for smoother scrolling
  • decode progressive JPEGs and WebP images

When to choose

  • maintaining a legacy Objective-C iOS codebase that already uses it
  • you need a zero-config image pipeline with preheating and cannot migrate

When to avoid

  • starting any new project - it is unmaintained
  • you program in Swift - use Nuke instead
  • you need ongoing bug fixes, security updates, or modern platform support
