Such an amazing piece of software. It has a slow learning curve, but can do amazing things once you get used to it.

It is ideal for simple operations, like resizing images, cropping them, adding a border within seconds or making GIFs. It can do way-way more once you've studied its documentation.

Also since it's a command line software, it's ideal for manipulating multiple images at the same time, and automating the process.

You will need to install a lot of other programs to make it work. Not worth it.

I like it because it’s easy to see what you haven’t been able to see because Dain Grab keeps doing stupid shit and doesn’t know what’s going to happen with any of them we will see

I like and approve of XnConvert, it does what it expresses, in converting WebP formats, whereas, ImageMagick states it can read and write images in a variety of formats (over 200) including WebP, it did not, only got an error popup. XnConvert gets 5-Stars from me.

CLI editors for videos and images are insane or very special purpose.

ImageMagick is not exception.

What is ImageMagick?

ImageMagick is a software suite to create, edit, and compose bitmap images. It can read, convert and write images in a variety of formats (about 100) including GIF, JPEG, JPEG-2000, PNG, PDF, PhotoCD, TIFF, and DPX. Use ImageMagick to translate, flip, mirror, rotate, scale, shear and transform images, adjust image colors, apply various special effects, or draw text, lines, polygons, ellipses and Bézier curves. ImageMagick is free software delivered as a ready-to-run binary distribution or as source code that you can freely use, copy, modify, and distribute. Its license is compatible with the GPL. It runs on all major operating systems. The functionality of ImageMagick is typically utilized from the command line or you can use the features from programs written in your favorite programming language. Choose from these interfaces: MagickCore (C), MagickWand (C), ChMagick (Ch), Magick++ (C++), JMagick (Java), L-Magick (Lisp), PascalMagick (Pascal), PerlMagick (Perl), MagickWand for PHP (PHP), PythonMagick (Python), RMagick (Ruby), or TclMagick (Tcl/TK). With a language interface, use ImageMagick to modify or create images automagically and dynamically.
