ARC Helper consists of a set of macros that are designed to be used in place of the standard Objective-C memory management functions and macros. These macros will generate code appropriate to the build target.
ARC Helper is modular: - For projects that are designed to work only with ARC enabled, you can use just the second and/or 3rd modules on their own (the part from "Weak reference support" down) and omit the first block. - For projects that are iOS only, you don't need the 3rd module (the part from "Weak delegate support" down), which deals with weak references to classes such as NSWindowController on Mac OS that do not support weak references under Mac OS 10.7.

AsyncImageView includes both a simple category on UIImageView for loading and displaying images asynchronously on iOS so that they do not lock up the UI, and a UIImageView subclass for more advanced features. AsyncImageView works with URLs so it can be used with either local or remote files.
Loaded/downloaded images are cached in memory and are automatically cleaned up in the event of a memory warning. The AsyncImageView operates independently of the UIImage cache, but by default any images located in the root of the application bundle will be stored in the UIImage cache instead, avoiding any duplication of cached images.
The library can also be used to load and cache images independently of a UIImageView as it provides direct access to the underlying loading and caching classes.

FXImageView is a class designed to simplify the application of common visual effects such as reflections and drop-shadows to images. FXImageView includes sophisticated queuing and caching logic to maximise performance when rendering these effects in real time.
As a bonus, FXImageView includes a standalone UIImage category for cropping, scaling and applying effects directly to an image.

GLView is a collection of classes designed to make it as easy as possible to get up and running with OpenGL functionality within an iOS app. The GLImage and GLImageView classes make it possible to load and display PVR formatted images and video clips in your app without needing to know any OpenGL whatsoever. See more about PVR images and video below. The GLModel and GLModelView classes allow you to load a 3D model using the popular WaveFront .obj format and display it in a view, again without needing to know anything about OpenGL. The GLView library is modular. If you don't want to render 3D models you can omit the Models classes and the rest of the library will still work. If you aren't interested in loading and displaying images and just want a basic OpenGL context set up for you, you can omit the Images and Models classes.

ReflectionView is a UIView subclass designed to make it easy to create "mirrored floor"-style reflections of views on iOS.
You may have noticed that Apple provides a Reflection sample project for this, but Apple's solution works only with images and involves fairly slow CPU-bound drawing to update the reflection, making it unsuitable for reflecting animated content. ReflectionView can operate in two modes; static mode - which works like Apple's sample code - or dynamic mode, which uses Core Animation and works in real-time on any view. This means you can use it to reflect the contents of a view containing dynamic elements such as controls or animation and the reflection will keep up in real-time.
