## What it is
A pure CSS library that recreates all 41 Instagram photo filters using only CSS classes, with no JavaScript required. Filters are applied by wrapping images in a figure element with a filter-[name] class, and the styles are customizable via SASS source files.

## Use cases
- apply instagram-like filters to photos with css only
- add photo filter effects to a website without javascript
- recreate instagram filter presets in the browser
- style image thumbnails with vintage photo effects
- customize photo filter styles via sass

## When to choose
- you want lightweight, dependency-free photo filters in a web page
- your stack is plain HTML/CSS or any framework that can include a stylesheet
- you need the full set of Instagram filter looks without canvas or JS image processing

## When to avoid
- you need server-side or native mobile image filtering
- you need dynamic, user-adjustable filter parameters rather than fixed presets
- you need filters beyond the fixed Instagram-style presets
