## What it is
Gradia is a GNOME desktop application for enhancing screenshots before sharing, adding backgrounds, padding, annotations, and export options. It supports custom image upload providers via shell commands and integrates with Flathub and Snap distributions.

## Use cases
- make screenshots look good on social media
- add gradient background to screenshot
- annotate screenshots before sharing
- upload screenshots to image host
- fix transparent screenshot backgrounds
- prepare app screenshots for documentation

## When to choose
- you're on Linux/GNOME and frequently share screenshots
- you want quick padding/backgrounds/annotations without a full image editor
- you want one-key screenshot-to-edit workflow

## When to avoid
- you need a full-featured image editor like GIMP
- you're not on Linux or don't use GTK desktop environments
- you need batch processing of many images

## Facets
- artifact type: application
- maturity: active
- function: image-processing, gui
- domain: image-processing, developer-tools, graphics
- platform: python
- tags: screenshot-annotation, gnome, gtk4, libadwaita, image-sharing, flathub, snap, linux, desktop
