I just pushed a framework for cross platform image loading. Some of the
features...
- Linux and 32-bit compatible.
- Detection of format from raw data, not filename.
- Imports into 8 bit, 16 bit, and HDR channels.
- HDR gamma conversion.
- RGB to greyscale using luminance.
- Optionally loads into unsafe buffers.
- 100% Swift.
- Fast.
I wrote this because I want to load textures for OpenGL. Only the BMP
decoder is implemented right now. The framework for adding decoders is
finished but I don't have a schedule for when more will be done.
Contributions are welcome and I can coordinate to make sure there's no
duplicate effort.
I stopped tagging and started ignoring the package manager since it's not
going to be in the 2.2 release. Let me know if this is a problem for anyone.

I've made progress with the image decoders. BMP, GIF, and PNG are working.
I also added an image viewer to the demos. 100% Swift all the way from the
file to OpenGL. Even inflate is Swift.

That is excellent! And would be an interesting source of benchmarks too; have you compared them against the typical C libraries?

I don't have any benchmarks to share. I didn't ignore performance
completely, but it was more important to get things actually working. If
someone wants to publish benchmarks or submit performance improvements,
that'd be awesome.

cool!
Will be nice add S3 Texture Compression formats.

You can use DXT (S3) files by loading them to NSData and sending the raw
bytes to OpenGL. There's no need to decode a format your video card already
knows.
