Why opencv dependency? about cmdpxl HOT 3 OPEN

That was the image manipulation library I was most familiar with when I made this project; feel free to make a fork that uses something like Pillow instead.

from cmdpxl.

I was looking for a tui image editor, because in general tui applications are really energy-efficient and small.

While installing I got alarmed because of the huge download and it was downloading opencv and the first thing I thought was "This thing is spyware!", because I don't have an explanation why something like this needs opencv.

"Out of confidence" might be an explanation, even if it's a horrible excuse.

@miratcan Have you found an alternative yet?

@therealmaxmoon nope, but I think someone can build it with react + ink I think. https://github.com/vadimdemedes/ink
