pixi-cli
2024
pixi-cli was born out of a desire for speed and ease-of-use. During my time as a lab technician at Photographique (one of the last film/print shops in Dallas), I frequently observed a recurring problem: photographers often needed to make small adjustments — like tweaking exposure or contrast — before printing or sharing their photos. Waiting for heavy softwares like Lightroom or Capture One to load for these simple tasks, especially on older hardware, was frustrating and time-consuming.
This inspired me to create pixi-cli — a faster, simpler way to make quick edits directly from the terminal, saving time and keeping the workflow efficient.
pixi-cli is a straightforward, user-friendly command-line utility designed for speedy image conversion and basic image processing tasks. It was inspired by the power and versatility of the ImageMagick CLI but created to be more accessible and intuitive for quick edits.
You can check out the source code on GitHub, or you can dive right in and install it with pip:
pip install pixi-cli
