AsyncDisplayKit includes a library of components that can be composed to declaratively specify a layout. The following LayoutSpecs allow you to have multiple children:

  • ASStackLayoutSpec is based on a simplified version of CSS flexbox. It allows you to stack components vertically or horizontally and specify how they should be flexed and aligned to fit in the available space.
  • ASStaticLayoutSpec allows positioning children at fixed offsets.

The following layoutSpecs allow you to layout a single children:

  • ASLayoutSpec can be used as a spacer if it contains no children
  • ASInsetLayoutSpec applies an inset margin around a component.
  • ASBackgroundLayoutSpec lays out a component, stretching another component behind it as a backdrop.
  • ASOverlayLayoutSpec lays out a component, stretching another component on top of it as an overlay.
  • ASCenterLayoutSpec centers a component in the available space.
  • ASRatioLayoutSpec lays out a component at a fixed aspect ratio. Great for images, gifs and videos.
  • ASRelativeLayoutSpec lays out a component and positions it within the layout bounds according to vertical and horizontal positional specifiers. Similar to the “9-part” image areas, a child can be positioned at any of the 4 corners, or the middle of any of the 4 edges, as well as the center.
