Glide

Glide is a fast and efficient open source image loading and caching library for Android that focuses on smooth scrolling. It supports fetching, decoding and displaying images, video stills as well as animated GIFs, with a simple and easy to use interface and API.

Glide offers a performant and extensible resource decoding pipeline and automatic resource pooling, and a flexible API that allows developers to plug in to just about any network stack. It is primarily focused on making any type of a list of images as smooth and fast as possible, and is able to achieve this through smart and automatic downsampling and caching, aggressive re-use of resources and deep lifecycle integration. Apart from smooth and speedy scrolling, it’s also good for any case where fetching, resizing, and displaying of a remote image is needed.
