Lilliput is a lightweight image codec and processing library tailored for environments where performance, portability, and resource efficiency are critical, such as gaming clients, real-time applications, or systems with constrained memory budgets. Designed to support fast decoding and manipulation of common image formats like PNG, JPEG, WebP, and BMP, Lilliput is engineered to minimize dependencies and be easily integrated into a variety of C/C++-based projects without pulling in heavy external libraries. The library provides APIs for scaling, resizing, color conversions, and basic image operations that are crucial for performance-sensitive applications that need to display or transform images on the fly. Discord developed Lilliput to serve its own client rendering needs while reducing binary size and runtime overhead compared to more traditional image libraries, making it well-suited for embedded-like contexts or custom UI engines.
