50+ Dither Algorithms
Error diffusion, ordered dithering, blue noise, halftone, pattern dithering, and more. Fine-tune every algorithm with precise controls.
Dithering Studio
A professional-grade dithering toolkit with 50+ algorithms, real-time preview, video support, and an extensible plugin architecture. Transform any image into art.
Capabilities
Professional tools for pixel-perfect image processing, from classic error diffusion to advanced pattern dithering with real-time preview.
Error diffusion, ordered dithering, blue noise, halftone, pattern dithering, and more. Fine-tune every algorithm with precise controls.
Create custom color palettes or choose from presets with median-cut, k-means, and octree quantization options.
Add glow, JPEG artifacts, chromatic aberration, scanlines, and grain. Stack effects to craft a unique visual style.
Import videos and apply dithering frame-by-frame. Export dithered video while preserving all effects and settings.
Adjust threshold, spread, serpentine scanning, matrix size, and color distance for full creative control.
Zoomable and draggable preview canvas with instant updates and before/after comparison workflows.
Save combinations of algorithms, palettes, and effects. Share and import presets from your community.
Process multiple images at once for consistent output across game assets, web visuals, and print projects.
Dark, distraction-free interface with keyboard shortcuts and a workflow optimized for speed.
Algorithms
From classic Floyd-Steinberg to experimental blue-noise patterns. Every algorithm is tunable and combinable.
Extensible
Extend Dither with custom algorithms, effects, palettes, and export formats. Register a plugin and start processing pixels in minutes.
import { definePlugin, PixelBuffer } from '@dither/sdk'; export default definePlugin({ name: 'cross-hatch-dither', version: '1.0.0', type: 'algorithm', // Process each pixel through the algorithm process(buffer: PixelBuffer, settings) { const { width, height, data } = buffer; for (let y = 0; y < height; y++) { // ... pixel transforms ... } return buffer; } });
What's next
We're building the definitive dithering toolkit. Here's what is coming next.
GPU-accelerated processing with WebGPU, targeting 60fps real-time preview for 1080p video.
In Progress25+ new artistic styles, reaction-diffusion options, stippling, and space-filling curve variants.
In ProgressImport references, extract palettes, interpolate harmonies, and share curated marketplace collections.
Coming SoonSpatial masks to control where algorithms and effects apply, with layered compositions.
Coming SoonShare projects and presets in real-time with comments, forking, and version history.
FutureCommand-line workflows for CI/CD pipelines, scripted batches, and integration with build tools.
