Images are an integral part of every frontend developer's journey, shaping captivating digital experiences.
To conquer the challenges of working with images, here are 7 Lifesaver Tools tailored for your needs: from optimizing and resizing to background removal and finding royalty-free images, these tools will empower you to create stunning visuals effortlessly!
1. Online Photoshop web client:
Photopea is a powerful online image editing tool that brings the functionalities of Adobe Photoshop right to your web browser, that too for free!
So forget setting up Photoshop on your machine and start editing images right away!
2. Royalty free images
Finding high-quality, royalty-free images is a constant challenge for frontend developers.
If you are looking for resources that provide a vast collection of images that can be used in web projects without the need for complex licensing agreements or costly fees, here are my go-to ones:
3. Responsive image generator
Now that you have an image, you would want to optimize it for different devices.
In today's multi-device landscape, responsive design is crucial for frontend developers as all apps want to save bandwidth without compromising on the user experience.
Responsive Breakpoints addresses the need for device-optimized images effortlessly.
By automatically generating multiple versions of an image in different sizes, frontend developers can ensure that their websites or applications look stunning and load quickly on all devices without having to set up services like Cloudinary or Imagekit.
4. Background generator
Creating visually captivating backgrounds can elevate the overall look and feel of a website or application.
Background generation tools, like Bg-jar and Hero Patterns, simplify the process of designing unique and eye-catching backgrounds that suit their project's aesthetic.
5. Background remover
While backgrounds can make or break the visual appeal of an image, sometimes you just need to remove them altogether.
Remove Bg comes to the rescue, allowing frontend developers to effortlessly kiss the "background drama" goodbye with a few simple clicks.
Whether you want to create a clean and professional product shot or superimpose an object onto a different background, this tool is the way to go!
6. Image converter
Convertio is hands down the best convertor tool I encountered.
With support for 300+ formats, it makes converting not only images but also audio, video, documents, and more a breeze.
7. SVG tools
Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) play a vital role in modern web design, offering flexibility and resolution independence.
