Overview

image-in-browser is an NPM package providing the ability to load, manipulate and save images of various image file formats.

  • works both in Node.js and in the browser (no need for server-side Node.js)
  • written entirely in Typescript with transpiling into Javascript
  • fully compatible with the ES6 standard and provides typings for use with Typescript
  • may be used as an NPM package or as a compact Javascript minified file

This library may be especially useful when you need to work with static or animated images directly in the browser code when the code is isolated from the system it's running on.

Performance Warning
