ImageMagick
Command-line and library tools for creating, editing, and converting images across 200+ formats.
Why you might care
ImageMagick is the standard workhorse for batch image processing, format conversion, and programmatic image manipulation in scripts and build pipelines. It supports an enormous range of formats (JPEG, PNG, TIFF, WebP, HEIF, PDF, SVG, etc.) and operations (resize, rotate, composite, effects), making it essential when you need to automate image tasks without a GUI. Use it for server-side image processing, thumbnail generation, or as a library in applications.
