Create an Editor Module (Core Module)

The Editor Module will provide users with the capability to adjust and enhance images within the application. This module will focus on intuitive and powerful controls for editing exposure, contrast, color, and other properties to help users achieve desired visual results.

Goals

• Image Adjustment Tools: Provide a set of tools for adjusting essential image properties such as exposure, contrast, brightness, saturation, and more.
• User-Friendly Interface: Design an intuitive interface that allows users to make edits effortlessly, with live previews of all changes.
• Non-Destructive Editing: Ensure all edits are non-destructive, allowing users to revert or adjust settings without affecting the original image.

Features of the Editor Module

• Basic Editing Controls:

  • Exposure, Brightness, and Contrast: Allow users to adjust the exposure levels, brightness, and contrast to enhance image quality.
  • Saturation and Vibrance: Provide sliders for saturation and vibrance to control the intensity and vividness of colors.
  • Temperature and Tint: Let users adjust the warmth or coolness of the image, as well as fine-tuning colors using tint adjustments.

• Advanced Editing Tools:

  • Curves and Levels: Include tools for adjusting tonal curves and levels to give users more precise control over image brightness and contrast.
  • Selective Adjustments: Allow users to apply edits to specific areas of an image (e.g., using a brush or gradient tool).

• Editing History and Reversion:

  • Maintain an editable history of all changes, allowing users to undo or redo actions at any point.
  • Support non-destructive editing, ensuring that the original image remains unchanged.

Architectural Components

• Image Processing Engine: Core component that handles all image transformations, ensuring high performance and accuracy in edits.
• Editor Interface: A user interface designed for easy access to editing tools, with sliders, buttons, and visual feedback.
• Presets Manager: Manages predefined and custom presets, allowing users to save and apply sets of adjustments easily.

Acceptance Criteria

• Users can adjust basic image properties such as exposure, brightness, contrast, and saturation.
• Advanced editing features, including curves, levels, and selective adjustments, are available.
• All edits are non-destructive, with an editable history of changes.

Technical Notes

• Performance: Optimize the image processing engine to handle large images without significant delay or lag.
• Scalability: Ensure the editor can handle multiple images in a session without affecting performance.
