A browser-based image editor built with WebGL that applies GPU-accelerated filters such as contrast adjustment, tilt-shift, and lens defocus. It was originally written for HackNY 2011, with its core functionality later extracted into the glfx.js library.

Use cases

  • apply photo filters to images in the browser
  • edit images with tilt-shift or lens defocus effects
  • GPU-accelerated image adjustment tool
  • demo of WebGL image processing
  • adjust contrast and transform photos online

When to choose

  • you want a lightweight, browser-only image filter editor with no install
  • you need a reference implementation of WebGL image effects
  • you want to explore the glfx.js library in action

When to avoid

  • you need a full-featured image editor with layers and advanced tools
  • you need actively developed software with recent updates
  • you need non-browser or mobile image editing
