## What it is
Toucan is a Swift library providing a clean, chainable API for image processing on iOS. It simplifies resizing, cropping, masking (elliptical, rounded rect, custom images), and stylizing images.

## Use cases
- resize images in an iOS app
- crop images to fit specific bounds
- apply elliptical or rounded rect masks to images
- mask images with custom image shapes
- chain multiple image processing operations
- generate thumbnails from photos

## When to choose
- you need simple, chainable image manipulation in Swift on iOS
- you want easy resizing with clip/crop/scale fit modes
- you need masking with ellipses, rounded rects, or custom images

## When to avoid
- you need image processing on platforms other than iOS
- you need advanced editing like filters, color adjustments, or RAW processing
- you need a actively developed library with recent updates

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: maintenance
- function: image-processing
- domain: image-processing, mobile-development
- platform: -
- tags: swift, cocoapods, image-resizing, masking, chainable-api, ios, mobile
