Any recongnition should go to him and the original project mantainers.\n\n## About this fork\n\n> Updated to 977b857a11676c1e720e79ed8d9178a005a9abd6\n\n- Build node and browser specific bundles\n- Uses rollup for build\n## Browser Usage\n\nSimply include png.js and zlib.js on your HTML page, create a canvas element, and call PNG.load to load an image.\n\n \n \n \n \n\nThe source code for the browser version resides in `png.js` and also supports loading and displaying animated PNGs.\n\n## Node.js Usage\n\nInstall the module using npm\n\n sudo npm install png-js\n\nRequire the module and decode a PNG\n\n var PNG = require('png-js');\n PNG.decode('some.png', function(pixels) {\n // pixels is a 1d array (in rgba order) of decoded pixel data\n });\n\nYou can also call `PNG.load` if you want to load the PNG (but not decode the pixels) synchronously. If you already\nhave the PNG data in a buffer, simply use `new PNG(buffer)`. In both of these cases, you need to call `png.decode`\nyourself which passes your callback the decoded pixels as a buffer. If you already have a buffer you want the pixels\ncopied to, call `copyToImageData` with your buffer and the decoded pixels as returned from `decodePixels`.\n","readmeFilename":"README.md"}
