Quickview

A simple quick hot-reloading image viewer in the browser.

Why this exists

I like to create diagrams using things like PlantUML and Mermaid. Sometimes I do this remotely on another machine, and I'd like to see my changes when the generated image changes without having to switch to the browser and hit refresh every time. That annoys me enough to make this.

Installation

Check the releases page to get binaries directly for your OS.

Will add a Docker version later if warranted.

Usage

Host a specific image at http://localhost:8083:

# quickview <img-name> -a <address>
quickview diagrams/seq.svg -a localhost:8083
