Show HN: A pure WebGL image editor with filters, crop and perspective correction

I'm working on a pure js webgl image editor with effects, filters, crop & perspective correction, etc. My goal is to give the community an opensource solution as unfortunately most comparable apps are closed sources.

I've been looking for an open source image editor that I can embed in my app for managing my vintage ad archives (https://adretro.com). Basically I just need to rotate, crop, adjust color. But the images come from from the archive database rather than upload. And I want to work with them quickly, rather than save/open like a desktop app. Last time I looked I couldn't find something with good documentation that was easy to get started with. Right now I bulk edit in Google Photos.

Excellent work. The UI looks very clean and functional. It's feature packed. Good choice on using WebGL. It has support everywhere in most if not all browsers.

Nice. I tried it with an image from Unsplash. Maybe you can use the Unsplash API[1] to give people an example to play with.

I'm so glad this exsist. I've been meaning to get something similar started, but did not due to one reason or the other. I'll definitely try to contribute.
