  • caesium-image-compressor

    Caesium is an image compression software that helps you store, send and share digital pictures, supporting JPG, PNG and WebP formats. You can quickly reduce the file size (and resolution, if you want) by preserving the overall quality of the image.

  • libjxl

    JPEG XL image format reference implementation

    Project mention: JPEG XL and the Pareto Front | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-03-01

    https://github.com/libjxl/libjxl/blob/main/doc/format_overvi... is a pretty detailed but good overview. The highlights are variable size DCT (up to 128x128), ANS entropy prediction, and chroma from luminance prediction. https://github.com/libjxl/libjxl/blob/main/doc/encode_effort... also gives a good breakdown of features by effort level.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • fuif

    Free Universal Image Format

    Project mention: JPEG XL: How It Started, How It’s Going | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-07-20

    But they didn't even explain what FUIF or PIK might be in that section or even the entire article!

    To understand that article required me searching for FUIF [1], PIK [2] and a brief explanation of what JPEG XL is trying to achieve.

    I double down on my "complaint" - I'd call it constructive criticism - that article was poorly written. It's actually quite a good story that their Free Universal Image Format (FUIF) has achieved what it has. That's a great acronym, especially for a world that thinks JPEG XL is a good acronym! Why not put in in the article.

    To save anyone else time:
