Jpeg-Compressor
A small, public domain or Apache 2.0 licensed C++ JPEG compression and fuzzed low-RAM decompression codec.
What is Jpeg-Compressor?
jpeg-compressor is a lightweight, open-source C++ library for JPEG image compression and decompression. It provides a minimal, self-contained codec that writes baseline JPEGs and includes a fuzz-tested decompressor resilient to corrupted inputs. The project solves the need for a reliable, low-memory JPEG solution in embedded systems or applications where larger libraries like libjpeg are impractical.
Developers working on embedded systems, microcontrollers, or applications requiring a small, safe JPEG codec with minimal dependencies. It's also suitable for those needing a public domain or Apache 2.0 licensed alternative to libjpeg.
Developers choose jpeg-compressor for its exceptional combination of small code size, low memory footprint, and fuzzed decompression safety. Its permissive licensing and single-file design make integration straightforward, while support for streaming decompression enables use in resource-constrained environments where other libraries fail.
