Simple, opinionated and Wayland-native image viewer using the Image crate .
Built in response to imv's high memory usage on my system, and does not
implement an IPC as I consider it YAGNI[^1]
Still a work in progress, I would like to reach partial feature parity with
imv.
lychee path/to/image.png # or another extension.You may use the --same-size flag to create a window that is the same size as
the image that is opening. Success of this flag depends on your desktop
environment.
All formats supported by the Image crate will be supported by Lychee. For edge cases, please open an issue. For the time being, this should include: AVIF, BMP, DDS, Farbfeld, GIF, HDR, ICO, JPEG, EXR, PNG, PNM, QOI, TGA, TIFF and WebP.
