Hi,
I'd like to invite anyone interested in reviewing the tiniest package
ever, to please give pixelmatch a review. It's the only zero-dependency
non-dev go package I've seen.
https://salsa.debian.org/go-team/packages/pixelmatch
If you ever saw 2 images and wanted to know if they matched, pixelmatch
answers that question.
One note worth mentioning, it produces a -dev package as somewhere in
the rabbit hole of d2/go-exif/playwright, it was a dependency. Still
working on those.
Upload/Sponsorship would be appreciated as well at some point.

* Package name : pixelmatch
Version : 0.0~git20230914
Upstream Author : Nao Yonashiro
* URL : https://github.com/orisano/pixelmatch
* License : Expat
Programming Lang: Go
Description : pixel-level image comparison
Compares two input images pixel-by-pixel and generates an output
image showing the differences. Supports common formats for
input and output as JPG or PNG.
.
Go port for javascript mapbox/pixelmatch.
This is a useful cli and may be used as a dependency for playwright-go
(not looking likely though as node-playwright isn't playing)
I'll try to find a home for it with the go team.
