A Laravel package that optimizes PNG, JPG, SVG, and GIF images by running them through a chain of installed optimization binaries. It is the Laravel integration of spatie/image-optimizer and includes a facade, container binding, and middleware for automatic optimization.

Use cases

• optimize images in a laravel app
• compress pngs and jpgs on upload
• reduce image file sizes for faster page loads
• automatically optimize images served via middleware
• shrink svg and gif files in php
• integrate image optimization into laravel media uploads

When to choose

• you use Laravel and want drop-in image optimization
• you want to leverage system-installed optimizers like pngquant or jpegoptim
• you need automatic optimization of request/response images via middleware

When to avoid

• you are not using Laravel - use spatie/image-optimizer directly
• you need pure-PHP optimization without external binaries
• you need advanced image manipulation like resizing or cropping - use spatie/image instead
