Description

Hi, I’d like to suggest adding eikon to the Image Processing section.
Why eikon ?
- It’s a lightweight C++ library for image manipulation (PNG/BMP/PPM) with no external dependencies (not even stb_image).
- Designed for simplicity and creative use cases, especially generative art and CLI tools.
- Includes a built-in command-line interface for quick image generation and scripting.
- Cross-platform and easy to integrate into small projects or educational environments.

The project is actively maintained and well-documented, with examples and a clear API. It could be a useful addition for developers looking for a minimal alternative to heavier frameworks.

Thanks for considering it!
