This is my first major OSS release! I was always so frustrated by how slow image viewers were on Windows so I built one from the ground up with Rust & Tauri v2.0! Electro also has a very unique feature: a built-in terminal. I was always mesmerised by merging CLI tools with GUI based systems and this is my first go at it! I have big plans on expanding the terminal functionality with built-in image editing commands, command chaining, file handling etc.

This allows for really interesting new workflows, like quickly mixing multiple images, or creating visual prompts by using annotations and reference on the canvas. Some key details: - Built with our plugin system in CE.SDK (CreativeEditor SDK) -…

Hi HN, this is a project I've been working on as part of my PhD. Vidformer is a system that makes video annotation or transformation scripts practically instant. Traditional scripts that render full videos can take minutes—Vidformer speeds this up by optimizing execution and using on-demand rendering, so results appear immediately instead of waiting for entire videos to render. It works as a drop-in replacement for OpenCV's cv2, meaning most scripts can adopt it by simply changing "import cv2" to "import vidformer.cv2 as cv2"—no need to rewrite code or sacrifice flexibility.
