Feature Implementation: Headshot Upload and Integration with Sweater Generator

Overview

We need to implement a new feature in our sweater generator application. This feature will allow users to upload a headshot, automatically remove its background, scale the headshot to fit on a sweater, and then enable the user to download the combined image of the sweater with the headshot overlaying it.

Tasks

Image Upload Functionality

• Integrate an image upload library (e.g., DropzoneJS or FilePond) to enable users to upload their headshots.
• Ensure that the upload process is user-friendly and supports various image formats (JPEG, PNG, etc.).

Background Removal

• Implement background removal functionality. Options include integrating an external API like remove.bg or developing an in-house solution.
• The background removal process should be automatic and require minimal input from the user.

Image Scaling and Placement

• Once the background is removed, the headshot needs to be scaled appropriately to fit on the sweater.
• Utilize an image manipulation library (e.g., Fabric.js or PixiJS) to overlay the headshot onto the sweater image.
• Ensure that the placement is adjustable by the user, if necessary.

Image Download

• Provide functionality for the user to download the final combined image.
• The download should preserve the image quality and be available in common formats (e.g., JPEG, PNG).

Requirements

• The feature should be mobile-responsive and work seamlessly across all devices.
• Ensure that the implementation adheres to privacy and data handling standards (especially important for user-uploaded photos).
• The UI/UX should be intuitive and align with the existing design of the application.
