A fast, secure image processing server and Go library using libvips, offering a high-performance drop-in replacement for thumbor.
What is imagor?
Imagor is a fast, secure image processing server and Go library that uses libvips for high-performance image transformations. It solves the problem of slow, resource-intensive image processing by providing a scalable solution that is typically 4-8x faster than ImageMagick, with support for streaming and parallel pipelines.
Developers and engineers building web applications, media platforms, or services that require real-time image resizing, cropping, filtering, or format conversion at scale, especially those migrating from or considering thumbor.
Developers choose Imagor for its exceptional speed due to libvips integration, Docker-native deployment, and compatibility with thumbor's URL syntax, making it a seamless, high-performance drop-in replacement with enhanced security and extensibility.
