Fresco is a powerful system for displaying images in Android applications.
In Android 4.x and lower, Fresco puts images in a special region of Android memory (called ashmem). This lets your application run faster - and suffer the dreaded OutOfMemoryError much less often.
Fresco also supports streaming of JPEGs.
How to set up dependencies in the app level build.gradle file:
dependencies {
// Your app's other dependencies.
compile 'com.facebook.fresco:fresco:0.14.1' // Or a newer version if available.
}
