About Dither Dog

Dither Dog is a modern web-based image, video, and GIF processing application specializing in dithering effects and artistic transformations.

Built with cutting-edge web technologies including Next.js 15, React 19, and TypeScript, Dither Dog provides real-time image, video, and GIF processing entirely in your browser with no server uploads required.

Features

• Multiple dithering algorithms including Floyd-Steinberg, Bayer matrices, and artistic patterns
• Extensive color palette options from classic black & white to retro gaming palettes
• Real-time image, video, and GIF adjustments with brightness, contrast, and blur controls
• Edge detection and threshold effects
• Preset configurations for quick artistic styles
• Pan and zoom controls for detailed viewing
• Download processed images, videos, and GIFs instantly

Privacy

All image, video, and GIF processing happens locally in your browser. Your files are never uploaded to any server, ensuring complete privacy and security.

Why It's Free

I wanted this app to be free. Real dithering tools are often locked behind subscriptions or bundled into expensive creative suites, and I didn't think they should be — designers should be able to reach for something like this without having to pay for it first.

Building Dither Dog has also been a way for me to keep honing my own design craft: shipping a small, useful tool end to end, in public, for anyone to use. If it's been helpful to you and you'd like to support future updates, you can buy me a coffee.

Open Source
