npm version

trimmed2.mp4

A performant way to render images in React Native (iOS only, Android defaults to the standard component Image) with a focus on speed and memory usage. Powered by Nuke, the smallest and most performant image loading library for iOS and macOS.

The framework is lean and compiles in under 2 seconds¹. Nuke has an automated test suite 2x the size of the codebase itself, ensuring excellent reliability. Every feature is carefully designed and optimized for performance.

Features

  • Fast image loading
  • Memory and disk caching
  • Placeholder support:
  • Animated transition
  • Failure image
  • Typescript support
  • Written in Swift

  thumbhash="k0oGLQaSVsJ0BVhn2oq2Z5SQUQcZ"
