To start using ZLPhotoBrowser in your app, follow these steps:

Here is an example:
let photos: [ZLPhotoModel] = [
ZLPhotoModel(imageURL: URL(string: "https://example.com/photo1.jpg")),
ZLPhotoModel(asset: myPHAsset),
ZLPhotoModel(image: UIImage(named: "localImage"))
]
Step 3: Display the photo browser
To present the ZLPhotoBrowser view controller, initialize it with the photo data source and present it from your desired view controller:
// Initialize ZLPhotoBrowser
let browser = ZLPhotoBrowser(photos: photos, initialIndex: 0)
present(browser, animated: true, completion: nil)
