I built a lightweight GIF decoder in pure C, ideal for embedded or performance-critical environments. It’s header-only, zero dynamic memory allocations, and fully platform-independent. Supports both static and animated GIFs, with turbo and safe decoding modes. Works great on microcontrollers, IoT devices, and anything with a framebuffer. Would love feedback or ideas where this could be useful.

Is there any mayor update?
What is GIF_MODE_TURBO ? I don't remember that in the specification, but I read it a very long time ago. Someone commented that it didn't compile when GIF_MODE_TURBO was undefined. Is that fixed?
