Open Source: Grid View Library For Springboards, Image Collections And More

I’ve mentioned some excellent libraries on this site, and this is one that has tremendous versatility. I’ve known about this library for quite awhile, and when I saw an update being pushed out yesterday I realized that I had neglected to mention it.

This library provides you with the capability to easily display a collection of images similar to NSCollectionView on the mac, and was designed to be programmed in a similar fashion to a UITableView for ease of use.

Included with this library are 3 excellent examples demonstrating how it can be used to quickly create a springboard, a set of images expanding from a single point, and a scrollable grid of images.

The library is AQGridView from Jim Dovey.

You can find the Github repository here:

If you want to display a collection of images in your app you should definitely check it out.
