// Function takes in a single url or array of gif urls

Contributing

This is just an encapsulation of the gify-parse package (which does the bulk of the work) created for another project, but if you would like to contribute please make a pull request with your work. Feel free to contact me and introduce yourself as well.

Acknowledgments

• Jonas Havers - Jonas' gify-parse based on Ryan French's gify is the core of the module, we just encapsulated it for a very specific need.
