- Yet another c++ library that implements color conversion and manipulation.
- No virtual functions
- Minimal memory footprint
- Ability to copy array/vector of colors with memcpy, memmove and initialize with memset.
- Conversions from/to different models ( and its formats ).
- Headers only
- One file to include to start the fun
- By using del or rm it is reducible in to only two of them.
- No third parties
- No additional binaries
- Out of the box ready
- No need to recompile or start some install process.
- Color models:
- GRAY,
- RGB, CMY, CMYK,
- HSI, HSL, HSV, HWB, TSL
- YIQ, YUV(BT.601, BT.709), YCgCo, YPbPr(BT.601, BT.709, BT.2020),
- XYZ( sRGB, D65, 2° ), LAB( CIE, Hunter), LUV, LMS( von Kries D65, von Kries E, BFD, MCAT02 ), xyY, LabCH, LuvCH
