## What it is
Free texture packer that creates sprite sheets and texture atlases for games and websites, with rotation, trimming, multipacking, and export formats like JSON, XML, CSS, Pixi.js, Godot, Phaser, and Cocos2d. Available as a web app, desktop app (Win/Mac/Linux), and as gulp/grunt/webpack plugins and a CLI.

## Use cases
- pack sprites into a spritesheet for a pixi.js game
- generate texture atlas for phaser
- create sprite sheets with trimming and rotation
- export texture atlas for godot or cocos2d
- batch pack images into multiple texture pages
- compress sprite sheets with TinyPNG
- generate css sprite sheets for a website

## When to choose
- you need a free alternative to TexturePacker for game sprite atlases
- you want a GUI plus build-tool integrations (gulp, grunt, webpack, CLI)
- you target engines like Pixi.js, Phaser, Godot, or Cocos2d

## When to avoid
- you need actively developed features - the maintainer only fixes critical bugs
- you need advanced commercial packer features or paid support
