Thank you for the support that I’ve received during the launch of MAZANOKE—a self-hosted local image optimizer that runs in your browser! It can run offline and is installable as a web app too.
This week, I’ve been addressing the feature that has been a bottleneck for the usability of an image optimizer, namely: batch upload and download.
Project page: https://github.com/civilblur/mazanoke
Highlights v1.0.1 (view release note)
- Upload multiple files simultaneously
- Images are processed one at a time to prevent excessive browser resource usage.
- Download all optimized images as a zip file.
- Files over 1GB are split into multiple zip files.
- Large downloads may take time, depending on hardware and browser.
- Option to clear optimized images from the “Images” section.
- Convert GIF and SVG to PNG.
- GIF-to-GIF optimization is not supported.
- SVG optimization is not planned.
Yeah, you’re totally right.
And then it mentions that you can just open the index.html directly, which means it uses clientside javascript or wasm and runs on the browser. You are correct!
On the topic of word choice, you might be right. Save or open might be better.
