+# Pixpipe.js
+Pixpipe.js is an attempt of building an image processing pipeline entirely in Javascript for browsers. Its architecture was somewhat inspired by [ITK](https://itk.org/), making a clear separation between objects that *contain* data (`Image2D`) from object that *process* data (`Filter`).  
+
+The concept of *pipeline* implies that the output of a `Filter` can be used as input for the next one, like in *ITK*. In Pixpipe.js, this is done by using the `Filter`'s methods `addInput()` and `getOuput()`. Some `Filter` may have several *input* or *output* of different kinds.
+
+
+
+# The future of Pixpipe.js
+The plan is to add more image processing filters and tools, like *FFT*, or *wavelet decomposition* to process data in the frequency domain. Though, this kind of processing is quite greedy and would need a *low-level* approach. This can be done efficiently using *C/C++* code converted into optimal lower-level Javascript using [Emscriptem](http://kripken.github.io/emscripten-site/). These are the next big steps.
