Custom Image Editor Development

Job ID: 40437745

Budget: ₹600 – ₹1,500 INR

I want to commission a lightweight yet capable image-editing application focused on everyday graphic tasks rather than the full complexity of a Photoshop clone. The core of the brief is simple: the finished tool must let me open common raster formats, work across multiple layers, add editable text, and apply a solid set of real-time filters.

Key functionality I need implemented
• Layer management: create, reorder, hide, lock, and adjust opacity on layers.
• Filters & effects: at minimum include non-destructive color-correction controls (brightness, contrast, levels) and several blur options (gaussian, box, motion). An architecture that lets me plug in extra artistic filters later is a plus.
• Text overlay: place and edit text blocks on their own layers, with basic font, size, color, and alignment controls.

I’m open to the stack you feel most productive in—Electron + HTML5 Canvas, a React/Typescript SPA, or a Qt/C++ desktop build are all fine—as long as the UI feels snappy and the codebase is clear enough for me to maintain.

Deliverables
1. Compiled app for Windows (macOS/Linux builds are welcome but not mandatory)
2. Full source code in a public or private repo
3. Build/readme instructions that let me recreate the release from scratch
4. A short demo file set illustrating layers, text, color correction, and blur in action

For acceptance I’ll load the demo, verify each of the bullet-pointed features, and run a quick performance check on large PNGs (3000×3000). If it behaves smoothly, the milestone is met.

Let me know which framework you prefer and roughly how long you’ll need for an MVP.
