## What it is
imgp is a fast command-line batch image resizer and rotator for JPEG and PNG images, powered by multiprocessing and Pillow-SIMD. It supports adaptive resizing, rotation, optimization, EXIF handling, and recursive directory processing.

## Use cases
- batch resize thousands of images from the command line
- generate thumbnails for a directory of photos
- rotate images by a specified angle in bulk
- compress and optimize JPEG/PNG images to save storage
- strip EXIF metadata from photos
- convert PNG images to JPEG

## When to choose
- you need to resize or rotate large batches of images quickly from the terminal
- you want a lightweight standalone tool without a file manager dependency
- you need EXIF preservation or erasure and quality control during conversion

## When to avoid
- you need a GUI-based image editor
- you need formats beyond JPEG and PNG
- you need advanced editing like cropping, filters, or color adjustments

## Facets
- artifact type: cli-tool
- maturity: active
- function: image-processing, cli
- domain: image-processing, files
- platform: windows, cli, python
- tags: batch-resize, image-rotation, thumbnailing, exif, pillow-simd, multiprocessing, command-line, linux, macos
