Library And Guide: Use Swift Protocol Extensions With Core Image’s Gaussian Blur Filter

I’ve mentioned a number of interesting libraries and tutorials from the FlexMonkey blog most recently the ShinpuruLayout library for creating complex UI’s.

Here’s an open source library from FlexMonkey that provides a number of Swift protocol extensions for applying a Gaussian Blur with a clean simple syntax and full customization called Blurable.

With Blurable you can easily blur or unblur, check whether the view is currently blurred, and customize the level of blurring. Blurable uses core image’s CIGaussianBlur, and with some modification could be used with other core image filters.

You can find Blurable on Github here.

You can read more about blurable over on the FlexMonkey blog.

A nice little experiment showing how to use Swift protocol extensions with core image filters.
