## What it is
A Python command-line tool that searches and downloads hundreds of images from Google Images to local storage. It uses Selenium with Chrome/Chromium to handle JavaScript-rendered search results and supports filters like color.

## Use cases
- bulk download images from google search
- build an image dataset for machine learning
- scrape google images from the command line
- download images with color filters
- collect sample images for a project

## When to choose
- you need many images from Google Images quickly via CLI
- you want a ready-to-run Python script with color/type filters
- you are building image datasets for educational purposes

## When to avoid
- you need a supported search API or guaranteed legal compliance
- you cannot install Chrome/Chromium
- you need commercial-scale scraping without copyright concerns
