A Rust library providing encoding and decoding for many common image formats (PNG, JPEG, GIF, WebP, AVIF, TIFF, and more) plus basic image processing functions. It offers a high-level API for loading, saving, and manipulating images via GenericImage/GenericImageView traits.
Use cases
- decode a png or jpeg image in rust
- convert images between formats
- resize and manipulate pixel buffers in rust
- load images from bytes with format detection
- encode images to webp or avif
When to choose
- you need a mature, widely-used pure-Rust image codec library
- you want basic image processing plus many format encoders/decoders in one crate
- you need a plugin interface for additional formats via image-extras
When to avoid
- you need advanced image editing features like layers or full photo manipulation
- you require GPU-accelerated image processing
- you need formats not covered by the crate or its plugin ecosystem
