DESCRIPTION

This project aims to create a simple yet powerful tool for manipulating images. Image manipulation is necessary for a variety of use cases such as preparing images for websites, social media, or applications where specific formats or dimensions are required. It can save users time by offering an all-in-one interface to perform basic editing tasks without needing advanced software.

Approach:

• The project started with research into image manipulation using Python libraries like Pillow and Streamlit.
• Tools like streamlit-cropper were integrated for easier cropping.

Additional Resources:

• Streamlit documentation https://streamlit.io/
• Pillow library documentation https://readthedocs.org/projects/pillow/

EXPLANATION

DETAILS OF THE DIFFERENT FEATURES

1. Image Resizing: Users can resize images by height, width, or percentage.
2. Image Cropping: Provides an interactive cropping tool using streamlit-cropper with aspect ratio control.
3. Format Conversion: Converts images to popular formats like JPEG, PNG, BMP, and GIF.
4. Enhancement: Adjust brightness, contrast, sharpness, and color.

WHAT I HAVE DONE

1. Researched tools like Streamlit and Pillow for image manipulation.
2. Developed a basic interface using Streamlit for uploading and previewing images.
3. Integrated resizing functionality with live previews.
4. Added image cropping using streamlit-cropper.
5. Implemented format conversion with compression quality controls.
6. Enabled image enhancement options (brightness, contrast, sharpness, color).
7. Ensured images can be saved and downloaded after edits.

PROJECT TRADE-OFFS AND SOLUTIONS

1. Trade-off 1: Keeping the interface simple vs. adding advanced features.
   • Solution: Prioritized simplicity, only adding essential features like resizing, cropping, and enhancement.
2. Trade-off 2: Balancing performance with real-time previews.
   • Solution: Implemented lightweight image previews using Pillow and optimized backend logic.

LIBRARIES NEEDED

• streamlit
• Pillow
• streamlit-cropper
