# Introduction

zpl.texed is a cross-platform stack-based image generation tool suitable for prototyping textures with pixel art aesthetics. It offers a suite of tools to generate/blend/modify stacked layers and also provides an ability to export bespoke textures into PNG files or packed C header files (a header containing an array of bytes and various metadata).

**zpl.texed** runs on top of [raylib](https://raylib.com/) technologies and makes use of the [zpl](https://zpl.pw/) ecosystem alongside the **cwpack** library to provide a robust and intuitive user experience.
