Do you think you could be able to do this with Core Image instead of ImageMagick?

Open question, just wondering if the need to have ImageMagick as a dependency is actually needed? Also what benefits it introduces over going with the Core Image route.

Thank you for a great CLI application!

Hi @anhar!

I’ve done it with ImageMagick for having been working with that tool for quite some years, for a variety of things, it only turned out more powerful for image processing.

For the sake of removing the dependency I’m willing to have it implemented with core image. Perhaps keeping both as an option if results aren’t optimal.

Is this something you want to help us with?

Sure I'd be willing to take a look at it.
Although I have to be honest with you it wasn't my intention when asking the question.
It was more to understand your thought process of using ImageMagick, which I think is great by the way. I've used it on the backend side of things for creating image servers for example.
