Introducing AVIF.swift, the ultimate image decoding solution for AVIF images on iOS and macOS. The AVIFDecoder.decode method allows you to easily read and write AVIF images using the power of Swift. With AVIF.swift, you can decode AVIF images with up to 50% smaller file sizes and 25% better compression than JPEG, all while maintaining the highest quality. This package is compatible with both Swift Package Manager and CocoaPods. Try AVIF.swift today and see the difference for yourself. Check it out at https://github.com/awxkee/avif.swift
This package is provides full (compatibility support) for AVIF images for all apple platforms. Supports encode AVIF and decode AVIF images in convinient and fast way
Package based on dav1d to have the best speed of decompressing on devices that do not have support for AV1 hardware codec.
As AVIF encoder have aom as just this one looks reasonable to encode AVIF images on mobile devices
Main aim of the project is to use AVIF image on all Apple platforms etc with usable speed and convenience
Supports animated AVIF's with realtime FPS like 24+ Also supports encoding animated AVIF's
Handles HDR images with PQ, HLG and SMPTE428 transfer functions
Precompiled for iOS 11+, Mac OS 12+, Mac Catalyst 14+, WatchOS 6+, tvOS 13+

AVIF offers lossy and lossless compression and has already 70% support by web browsers. It is regarded as a significant advancement in media compression. It is the goal of AOMedia to create open, royalty-free software standards for multimedia distribution. Specifically, AVIF will be free for everyone to use. There is a long list of big companies behind AOMedia, including Netflix, Google, Facebook, Apple, and Microsoft. In terms of image file formats for the web, JPG and PNG are considered the most popular. Several years ago, Google developed a format called WebP that delivers images 30% smaller than JPGs, while maintaining image quality. With AVIF, images are 50% smaller than JPG while maintaining the same quality.
