Downloading images from web with ESP8266 and displaying them

I'm looking for an Arduino IDE library that will allow me to dynamically download images from a web URL using an ESP8266 and display them on a TFT LCD. I'm aware of https://github.com/Bodmer/JPEGDecoder but that doesn't allow for the web download part - only for rendering images stored locally in flash memory or SPIFFS. Any help much appreciated. Thanks.

Look at the StreamHttpClient example (File | Examples | ESP8266HTTPClient). You can modify it to fetch an image files and save it to SPIFFS.
