image-rs

We are developping open source image libraries for Rust programmers. This includes abstraction layers, standalone decoders for commont formats, image manipulation and more.

The goal is to have pure Rust replacements with the quality of established C libraries but the extra safety provided by the language without performance compromise. While this has not yet been achieved (we wouldn't require this page then) we are continuously improving.

The project is maintained by hobbyists and enthusiasts but used widely across the ecosystem. The main image crate serves as the loader for the servo browser, it is the platform independent decoder behind the game engines Piston and ggez as well several other libraries for UI and graphics bindings.
