 * **imageflow_tool** is a command-line tool for experimenting, running batch jobs,
 or when you want process isolation. Up to 17x faster than ImageMagick. Also produces smaller files at higher quality.
 * **imageflow_server** can run JSON jobs or manipulate images in-flight (e.g.`/bucket/img.jpg?w=200`) for direct use from
 HTML. Source images can reside in blob storage, on another server, or on the filesystem.

 * Rust - Imageflow is written in Rust, so you can use the `imageflow_core` crate.
