About ImagefanReloaded
ImageFan Reloaded is an open source, tab-based image viewer written in C# for Linux and Windows. It targets .NET 10, uses Avalonia for the user interface, Magick.NET for image processing, and SQLite as a thumbnail cache database. Each tab can show a different folder, and the viewer supports thumbnail browsing, full-screen and windowed image viewing, and slideshow navigation.
The project also includes basic image editing with undo support, covering rotate, flip, effects, crop, downsize, and saving in various formats. Thumbnail generation runs concurrently and scales to the number of processor cores. The source lists 46 supported image formats and describes animation support for AVIF, GIF, JXL, MNG, and WebP files. Browsing inside zip archives and recursive folder browsing are also listed. Pricing is not stated.
