Pulsator is an iOS component for creating pulsing halo animations, written in Swift as the successor to the discontinued Objective-C PulsingHalo. It lets developers add customizable pulsing layers to any view, commonly used for iBeacon pulses and map annotations.

Use cases

• add a pulsing halo animation to an iOS view
• show pulsing map annotations on iOS
• animate iBeacon pulses in an app
• create radar-style pulse effects in Swift
• customize pulse radius, color, and duration on iOS

When to choose

• you need a ready-made pulsing animation component for iOS
• you want customizable halo effects for map annotations or beacons
• you prefer a lightweight Swift library over writing Core Animation code yourself

When to avoid

• you need animations on Android or cross-platform frameworks
• you need complex or chained animations beyond simple pulsing halos
• you require actively maintained software with recent releases
