[API Proposal]: Add a library for working with pictures #93075

Closed Mr0N closed 11 months ago

Mr0N commented 11 months ago

Background and motivation

I suggest adding a library for working with photos that would be compatible with all operating systems, not just Windows. There are open-source libraries available for image manipulation, but they tend to be temporary solutions, as they may change their license or simply cease library support.

Building an efficient image processing library that supports multiple codecs, is efficient, has a good API design, is fast and safe, is fully trimmable and AOT friendly, is fully managed, cross platform, etc. is a monumental amount of work, that would take years and multiple people working on it. It also requires extremely specialized knowledge. Thankfully ImageSharp already exists 😄

Microsoft developed Windows, so I think they can handle a library somehow).

Closing as not planned. As @Sergio0694 mentioned, ImageSharp and other alternatives already exist.
