AsyncDisplayKit is an iOS framework that keeps even the most complex user interfaces smooth and responsive. It was originally built to make Facebook's Paper possible, and goes hand-in-hand with pop's physics-based animations — but it's just as powerful with UIKit Dynamics and conventional app designs.

Quick start

ASDK is available on CocoaPods. Add the following to your Podfile:

pod 'AsyncDisplayKit'

(ASDK can also be used as a regular static library: Copy the project to your codebase manually, adding AsyncDisplayKit.xcodeproj to your workspace. Add libAsyncDisplayKit.a, MapKit, AssetsLibrary, and Photos to the "Link Binary With Libraries" build phase. Include -lc++ -ObjC in your project linker flags.)

Import the framework header, or create an Objective-C bridging header if you're using Swift:

#import <AsyncDisplayKit/AsyncDisplayKit.h>

AsyncDisplayKit Nodes are a thread-safe abstraction layer over UIViews and CALayers:

You can construct entire node hierarchies in parallel, or instantiate and size a single node on a background thread — for example, you could do something like this in a UIViewController:

dispatch_async(_backgroundQueue, ^{
  ASTextNode *node = [[ASTextNode alloc] init];
  node.attributedString = [[NSAttributedString alloc] initWithString:@"hello!"
                                                          attributes:nil];
  [node measure:CGSizeMake(screenWidth, FLT_MAX)];
  node.frame = (CGRect){ CGPointZero, node.calculatedSize };

  // self.view isn't a node, so we can only use it on the main thread
  dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^{
    [self.view addSubview:node.view];
  });
});

In Swift:

dispatch_async(dispatch_get_global_queue(DISPATCH_QUEUE_PRIORITY_DEFAULT, 0) {
  let node = ASTextNode()
  node.attributedString = NSAttributedString(string: "hello")
  node.measure(CGSize(width: screenWidth, height: CGFloat.max))
  node.frame = CGRect(origin: CGPointZero, size: node.calculatedSize)
            
  // self.view isn't a node, so we can only use it on the main thread
  dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue()) {
   self.view.addSubview(node.view)
  }
}

AsyncDisplayKit at a glance:

• ASImageNode and ASTextNode are drop-in replacements for UIImageView and UITextView.
• ASMultiplexImageNode can load and display progressively higher-quality variants of an image over a slow cell network, letting you quickly show a low-resolution photo while the full size downloads.
• ASNetworkImageNode is a simpler, single-image counterpart to the Multiplex node.
• ASTableView and ASCollectionView are a node-aware UITableView and UICollectionView, respectively, that can asynchronously preload cell nodes — from loading network data to rendering — all without blocking the main thread.

You can also easily create your own nodes to implement node hierarchies or custom drawing.

Testing

AsyncDisplayKit has extensive unit test coverage. You'll need to run pod install in the root AsyncDisplayKit directory to set up OCMock.
