Look inside

In this liveProject, you’ll use the Python Imaging Library (PIL) to tackle common image processing tasks. You’ll learn about some of the algorithms that let you apply filters to images, and you’ll use PIL to adjust image brightness, contrast, and color tone. You’ll crop, rotate, reflect, and perform other geometric operations on images.

This project is designed for learning purposes and is not a complete, production-ready application or solution.
