Convert images to other file formats automatically
Transform images through resizing, flipping, and adding filters
Crop images dynamically
Remove solid color backgrounds
Write a simple command line application

Description
Pillow is a free and open source library for the Python programming language that allows you to easily create and manipulate images.In this course, we'll take a hands-on approach to learning the library with several projects:A command line application to convert image file typesA tool to detect the edges of an object to crop around itResizing and adding logos and watermarks dynamically to a source imageRemoving solid backgrounds similar to the Chroma key effectAll of the source code is included with the course, so you can learn by coding along, watching the videos, or refactoring the code to meet your needs.If you're looking to automate your image editing workflow, expand your knowledge of Python, or are seeking your next creative project, this course is a must for you.
