What is ChocoFlop ?

This is a graphics manipulation Mac-based solution.

Chocoflop - CoreImage-based, realtime, non-destructive, high dynamic range Image and Photo Editing Application for Mac OS X.

ChocoFlop is based entirely on Core Image.

Here are some key features of “ChocoFlop”:

· Written from scratch for Mac OS X 10.4+
· No legacy or compatibility slow code
· Uses all hardware acceleration (CPU and GPU)
· Universal binary for PowerPC and Intel
· Uses CoreImage and custom OpenGL code.
· The download is about one megabyte (zipped) so far and will remain in that range (translation will probably increase this).
· Application is self-updating throught a RSS feed, thanks to Sparkle
· HDR ready: all operations work in 8, 16, 32 bits per components (a.k.a. 32, 64, 128 bits per pixel).
