R-liv
Rust Lean Image Viewer - Fast and configurable image viewer inspired by JPEGView by David Kleiner
THIS IS ARCHIVED
I've started making a new and better version, with Vulkan and tokio. This project is for me to learn, remember?
R-liv is meant to be a small, lean, fast and configurable image viewer inspired by JPEGView by David Kleiner. It's philosophy is similar - minimal GUI with maximal image and utility.
Features
- Support for multiple formats 1
- Support for transparency
- Pixel art friendly
Planned features:
- Basic image processing with live preview
- Saving
- Exif reading and error checking
Download
Compiling from source
git clone https://github.com/3top1a/r-liv
cd r-liv
cargo build --release
the binary will be under target/release/
Usage
R-liv only supports opening an image, otherwise it will error

On windows you can drag an image on the .exe to open it with R-liv.
But why?
Honestly, because JPEGView does not have Linux support. And I want to learn Rust.
And for who?
For powerusers, who want a image viewer that lets them do things quickly and not impact performance.
For normal users, who want a fast image viewer.
For editors, that don't want to open a fully featured editor to do something basic like flipping or rotating an image.
