A browser-based web app (also available as a desktop app) that corrupts JPEG image bytes to produce glitch-art effects, with real-time slider controls. The underlying glitch effect is also available as a separate library, glitch-canvas.

Use cases

  • glitch images with jpg encoding
  • create glitch art from my photos in the browser
  • corrupt jpeg files for artistic effects
  • apply datamosh-style glitch effects to images
  • offline image glitching tool
  • experiment with jpeg compression artifacts

When to choose

  • you want a quick, no-install browser tool for glitching images
  • you need real-time preview while adjusting glitch parameters
  • you want an offline-capable PWA for image corruption

When to avoid

  • you need programmatic glitching in your own code (use glitch-canvas instead)
  • you need non-JPEG image formats or batch processing
  • you need actively maintained software with recent updates
