What problem does it solve?
Rendering images in Rust terminals is challenging due to protocol support and terminal capability; this guide provides expert guidance on using viuer's auto-detection and half-block rendering to display images in the terminal.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Protocol auto-detection (Kitty, iTerm2) with fallback to sixel or lower-block rendering for non-graphics terminals
- Sizing and positioning via Config (width/height/x/y) for precise layouts in CLIs and TUIs
- Practical use cases include image previews, thumbnails, and terminal compatibility diagnostics across common backends
Quick Start
Install viuer in a Rust project and call viuer::print with a configured Config to render an image in the terminal.
