compress-photos-cli

Small command-line utility for batch photo compression.

What this repository is for

This project is best understood as a focused CLI tool for reducing image size in repeatable local workflows.

It is not trying to be a full image editor or media pipeline. Its value is in doing one practical task cleanly: take a group of photos and produce lighter outputs with less manual work.

Where it is useful

  • preparing images before upload;
  • reducing file size for storage or sharing;
  • standardizing repeated compression steps;
  • fitting image processing into shell-based workflows.

Positioning

This repository should be presented as a supporting utility.

That is a good thing. Small tools can strengthen a portfolio when they have a clear problem statement, a narrow scope, and an obvious use case.

What a good README for this repo should emphasize

  • expected input files or folders;
  • resulting output behavior;
  • one clear run command;
  • any quality-vs-size trade-offs;
  • limitations by design.

What would make it even stronger later

  • an installation example;
  • one sample command;
  • a short before/after size example;
  • supported formats;
  • note on recursive folder handling if available.

RU

Небольшая CLI-утилита для пакетного сжатия фотографий. Лучше всего подавать её как честный focused utility: одна прикладная задача, понятный сценарий использования, минимум лишнего шума.
