## What it is
Fisheye is an iOS library for playing 360-degree panorama videos with Metal-based rendering, offering both SwiftUI and UIKit APIs. It supports configurable field of view, frame rate, touch sensitivity, and sphere quality.

## Use cases
- play 360 degree panorama videos in an iOS app
- render immersive VR-style video with Metal on iOS
- add a SwiftUI 360 video player view to my app
- let users rotate panoramic video by touch
- customize field of view and sphere quality for video playback

## When to choose
- you need to play equirectangular 360 videos on iOS 15+ with Swift
- you want a simple SwiftUI or UIKit view for panoramic video
- you need Metal-based rendering with configurable quality

## When to avoid
- you need 360 photo or interactive VR scene support, not just video
- you target iOS versions below 15
- you need cross-platform (Android/web) 360 playback
