## What it is
An Android photo editing library that lets apps add paint drawing, text, filters, emoji, and stickers to images, similar to Instagram/Facebook stories. It is distributed as an AAR on Maven and supports undo/redo, pinch-to-scale, and saving edited photos.

## Use cases
- add text and emoji stickers to photos in an android app
- let users draw on images with a brush and eraser
- apply filter effects to photos like instagram stories
- build a photo editing screen with undo and redo
- save edited images with stickers and captions
- add image stickers and pinch-to-rotate editing to a mobile app

## When to choose
- you need story-style image editing (paint, text, emoji, stickers) in an Android app
- you want a ready-made, MIT-licensed editor instead of building canvas editing from scratch
- you need pinch-to-scale/rotate, undo/redo, and image saving out of the box

## When to avoid
- you need a full-featured photo editor with layers, curves, or advanced retouching
- your app is not on Android
- you need server-side or cross-platform (iOS/desktop) image editing
