imagineer
A pure Elixir library for reading and writing PNG and JPEG images without external dependencies.
What is imagineer?
Imagineer is a native Elixir image processing library that parses and writes image files entirely in Elixir, eliminating the need for external C bindings or system dependencies. It provides a clean, functional interface for working with image data directly within the Elixir ecosystem, currently focusing on PNG support with JPEG in development.
Elixir developers who need to process images without relying on external system dependencies, such as those building web applications, image manipulation tools, or embedded systems where portability is critical.
Developers choose Imagineer for its pure Elixir implementation, ensuring portability and ease of deployment, and its structured image data output that allows direct pixel access and manipulation using familiar Elixir data types.
