What is Swayimg?

Fully customizable and lightweight image viewer for Wayland based display

  • Support for the most popular image formats
  • Fully customizable keyboard bindings, colors, and many other parameters;
  • Loading images from files and pipes;
  • Gallery and viewer modes with slideshow and animation support;
  • Preload images in a separate thread;
  • Cache in memory, no data is written to permanent storage (HDD/SSD);
  • Sway integration mode: the application creates an "overlay" above the currently active window, which gives the illusion that you are opening the image directly in a terminal window.
