bimg was designed to be a small and efficient library with a generic and useful features.
It uses internally libvips, a powerful library written in C for binary image processing which requires a [low memory footprint](http://www.vips.ecs.soton.ac.uk/index.php?title=Speed_and_Memory_Use)

For getting started, take a look to the [examples](#examples) and [API](https://godoc.org/github.com/h2non/bimg) documentation.
