# PNG Decoder/Encoder

[![License](https://img.shields.io/crates/l/png.svg)](https://github.com/image-rs/image-png)

Robust and performant PNG decoder/encoder in pure Rust. Also supports [APNG](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/APNG).

No `unsafe` code, battle-tested, and fuzzed on [OSS-fuzz](https://github.com/google/oss-fuzz).

## Performance

Performance is typically on par with or better than libpng.

Includes a fast encoding mode powered by [fdeflate](https://crates.io/crates/fdeflate) that is dramatically faster than the fastest mode of libpng while *simultaneously* providing better compression ratio.

On nightly Rust compiler you can slightly speed up decoding of some images by enabling the `unstable` feature of this crate.
