Progressive Image

A flutter widget which progressively loads large images using Low Quality Image Placeholders.

Snapshots

Features

• Displays placeholder and thumbnail image until the target Image loads.
• Smooth Fade-in animations for preventing immediate image popups on load.
• Blur effect for low resolution thumbnail to prevent the pixelated view.

• Placeholder widgets instead of placeholder images can now be added in v2.0.0
