Kingfisher is a lightweight and pure Swift implemented library for downloading and caching image from the web. This project is heavily inspired by the popular [SDWebImage](https://github.com/rs/SDWebImage). And it provides you a chance to use pure Swift alternation in your next app.
Kingfisher is a lightweight and pure Swift implemented library for downloading and caching image from the web. This project is heavily inspired by the popular [SDWebImage](https://github.com/rs/SDWebImage). And it provides you a chance to use pure Swift alternative in your next app.

## Features

* Everything in Kingfisher goes asynchronously, not only downloading, but also caching. That means you will never worry about blocking your UI thread.
* Multiple-layer cache. Downloaded images will be cached in both memory and disk. So there is no need to download again and this could boost your app dramatically.
* Cache management. You can set the max duration or size the cache could take. And the cache will also be cleaned automatically to prevent taking too much resource.

* Multiple-layer cache. Downloaded images will be cached in both memory and disk. So there is no need to download again, this could boost your app's perceptual speed dramatically.
* Cache management. You can set the max duration or size the cache takes. From this, the cache will be cleaned automatically to prevent taking too many resources.
* Modern framework. Kingfisher uses `NSURLSession` and the latest technology of GCD, which makes it a strong and swift framework. It also provides you easy APIs to use.
* Cancelable processing task. You can cancel the downloading process if it is not needed anymore.
* Independent components. You can use the downloader or caching system separately. Or even create your own cache based on Kingfisher's code.
