## What it is
A Swift library for iOS that provides an easy-to-use image viewer inspired by Facebook's photo viewer, supporting single images, image arrays, and remote URLs. It integrates via CocoaPods or Carthage and offers theming and customization options.

## Use cases
- add a facebook-style photo viewer to my ios app
- display images fullscreen with pinch zoom in swift
- show a gallery of images from urls in ios
- open an image viewer when tapping a uiimageview
- customize image viewer theme and close button in swift

## When to choose
- you need a drop-in image viewer for iOS with minimal setup
- you want Facebook/Twitter-style photo browsing with gallery swiping
- your project supports iOS 10+ and Swift 4-5 with CocoaPods or Carthage

## When to avoid
- you need a viewer for Android or cross-platform apps
- you require advanced features like video playback or complex annotations
- you need a license-covered dependency, since the repo has no explicit license file
