## What it is
NYXImagesKit is an Objective-C static library for iOS providing a collection of UIImage categories for image operations such as filtering, blurring, masking, resizing, rotating, and enhancing. It leverages vDSP, vImage, and Core Image for performance and includes a UIImageView subclass for asynchronous image loading.

## Use cases
- apply filters like sepia, grayscale, or sharpen to uiimages in ios
- blur an image with a gaussian blur on ios
- crop or scale images while keeping aspect ratio
- mask one image with another image
- rotate or flip uiimages
- load an image asynchronously from a url into a uiimageview

## When to choose
- you maintain a legacy Objective-C iOS app needing simple UIImage manipulation utilities
- you want fast image filtering via vImage/vDSP/Core Image without writing your own code
- you need basic crop, scale, rotate, mask, and blur operations in one small library

## When to avoid
- you are starting a new project - the author recommends the Swift successor SwiftyImages
- you need actively maintained code with modern iOS support
- you need advanced image editing beyond the provided filters and operations
