I'm ambivalent about this one.
Pros:
- fits a niche we're missing
- reasonably good test suite (86% expression coverage)
- API looks ok
Cons:
- no reverse dependencies on Hackage (besides JuicyPixels-repa)
- benchmarks would be nice -- how competitive is it performance-wise to
e.g. imagemagick or imlib?
- only a handful of file types supported
Additionally: the haddocks are okay, but not great. (Although the image
encoded in the data url in the cabal description is super cool! I had no
idea haddock could do that). More examples would be welcome in a library
like this, e.g. showing the loading, processing, and saving of an image.
