I Built 35 Image Tools Into One Web App

I got tired of opening a different website every time I needed to do something simple with an image.

Compress an image β†’ one website.
Remove a background β†’ another.
Extract text with OCR β†’ another.
Generate a QR code β†’ another.

So I decided to build ImgDoctor.

πŸ”— https://imgdoctor.site/

What's inside?

ImgDoctor currently has 35 image tools, including:

πŸ—œοΈ Image compression & optimization

βœ‚οΈ Image resizing & cropping

πŸ”„ Image format conversion

🧹 Background removal

πŸ“ OCR / text extraction

πŸ“± QR code generation & scanning

πŸ”’ Barcode generation & scanning

🎨 Image editing

πŸ–ΌοΈ Poster Maker

And many other image utilities

Why build another image tool?

There are already plenty of great tools for individual image tasks.

The problem I wanted to solve was simpler:

Why do I need to visit a different website for every image-related task?

Instead of building another single-purpose tool, I wanted to put common workflows together in one place.

What I'm focusing on

I'm trying to keep the experience simple:

Choose a tool β†’ upload your image β†’ do the task β†’ download the result.

No complicated workflow.

ImgDoctor is still an actively evolving project, and I'm adding and improving tools along the way.

I'd love to hear from other developers:

What's an image-related task you regularly need a separate tool for?

Maybe I've already built itβ€”or it's something I should consider adding.

πŸ”— Try ImgDoctor: https://imgdoctor.site/

If you try it, I'd really appreciate your feedback.
