8**G'MIC** is a full-featured open-source framework for **[digital image processing](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_processing)**, distributed under the
9**[CeCILL](http://cecill.info/index.en.html)** free software licenses (LGPL-like and/or GPL-compatible).
10It provides several different **[user interfaces](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_interface)** to convert/manipulate/filter/visualize **generic image datasets**,
11ranging from _1d scalar signals_ to _3d+t sequences of multi-spectral volumetric images_, hence including _2d color images_.
12These user interfaces are:
13
14- **1** - **[gmic](https://gmic.eu/reference/)**, a command-line interface , to use the **G'MIC** image processing features from a shell.
15In this setting, **G'MIC** may be seen as a friendly companion to the [ImageMagick](http://www.imagemagick.org) or [GraphicsMagick](http://www.graphicsmagick.org)
16software suites.

19
20- **2** - **[libgmic](https://gmic.eu/libgmic.html)**, a small, portable, thread-safe and multi-threaded _C++_ image processing library to be linked to third-party applications.
21[Its simple API](https://gmic.eu/libgmic.html) allows programmers to add all **G'MIC** features in their own software without much efforts (a _C_ API is available as well).

24
25- **3** - **[G'MIC-Qt](https://github.com/c-koi/gmic-qt)**, a plug-in to bring **G'MIC** capabilities to the image retouching software [GIMP](http://www.gimp.org), [Krita](https://www.krita.org), [Photoshop](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adobe_Photoshop) and [Paint.NET](https://www.getpaint.net/). More than **500 filters** are already available, sorted by category (_Artistic, Black &amp; white, Colors, Contours, Deformations, Degradations, Details, Film emulation, Frames, Layers,
26Light &amp; shadows, Patterns, Rendering, Repair, Sequences_, etc.).
