has anyone been able to implement a Gif renderer on iOS?

Coil supports gifs in general, and the 3.0 alphas have multiplatform support (but they're obviously early). I haven't tried these two things together yet, but I assume they'd work.

GIFs are Android only in 3 atm

Ah, I found the docs about that now, good to know. Unfortunately I don't know of an alternative.

Was able to get it to work - no cocoapod or 3rd party dependency 🙂 just need to figure out how to map contentMode's

val gifView = remember(url) {
        UIImageView().apply {
            launch {
                image = UIImage.gifImageWithURL(url)
            }
        }
    }
