An open-source cloud service for viewing arbitrarily high-resolution zoomable

images.

Inspired by, and has taken over, the similar former Microsoft service

**[zoom.it]**.

This is a full, from-scratch rewrite, brought to you by the same developers who

built the original **[zoom.it]**.

## Usage

This service is running live at **[zoom.it]**.

We aren’t accepting any new content for now, but all old **[zoom.it]** content

should continue to work.

This service also includes a REST API, available at **[api.zoom.it][api.zoom.it]**

(e.g. [`/v1/content/4rcn`](http://api.zoom.it/v1/content/4rcn)).

For details and API documentation, see **[API.md](./API.md)**.

You can also run this code and host the service on your own.

The codebase is still a work-in-progress, but we can try to help if you need.

If you wish to run this on your own, or to contribute to our development,

please see **[CONTRIBUTING.md](./CONTRIBUTING.md)** for instructions.

## Discussion

## Issues

Feel free to file bugs, request features, and ask questions on

[GitHub Issues](https://github.com/zoomhub/zoomhub/issues).

That’s also where we’re tracking TODOs and remaining work.

## Credits

Special thanks to:

- **Bill Crow** (RIP) and **David Vos** for keeping [zoom.it] alive at Microsoft

  through the years, and helping us transition it when its time came.

  They moved mountains to get us both the data and the domain.

- **[OpenSeadragon](http://openseadragon.github.io/)** for providing the

  zooming viewer.

- **[VIPS](http://www.vips.ecs.soton.ac.uk/index.php?title=VIPS)** for

  providing blazing-fast DZI generation.

- All of our

  **[contributors](https://github.com/zoomhub/zoomhub/graphs/contributors)** for

  their time and energy.

  This project is entirely a labor of love, and all of us have our own day jobs.

  Maintaining any open-source project is work, but running a live, production

  service on top of that is something even more.
