Winnow
- Laravel
- React
- imgproxy
An image library that keeps one original and serves every crop, size and format as a live URL transform. Pre-launch.
Most image workflows end in a folder of near-duplicates: the same photograph at four sizes, three crops and two formats, each of them going stale on its own schedule and none of them the file anyone would go back to.
Winnow keeps the original and derives the rest on request through imgproxy, so the library holds one file per picture and the crop lives in the URL. A Webflow designer extension and a partner video player sit alongside the app; none of it is open to the public yet.
Why it exists
Built out of frustration with folders of near-duplicate exports. Keep one original per picture and let the URL do the cropping.
