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 → one website.
Remove a background → another.
Extract text with OCR → another.
Generate a QR code → another.

So I decided to build ImgDoctor.

What's inside?

ImgDoctor currently has 35 image tools, including:

🗜️ Image compression & optimization

✂️ Image resizing & cropping

🔄 Image format conversion

🧹 Background removal

📝 OCR / text extraction

📱 QR code generation & scanning

🔢 Barcode generation & scanning

🎨 Image editing

🖼️ 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 → upload your image → do the task → 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 it—or it's something I should consider adding.

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