License: MIT — Open-source edition is MIT; Pro edition with extra processors and AVIF speedups is paid.
Good fit for Most use cases — fastest single-binary image processor, near-perfect feature parity with Cloudinary's transformation surface.
Weak at No upload/management UI; you push images to S3 yourself. Video transformation requires the Pro edition.

`docker run -d -p 8080:8080 -e IMGPROXY_KEY='hex' -e IMGPROXY_SALT='hex' -e IMGPROXY_S3_ENDPOINT='https://s3.example.com' darthsim/imgproxy:latest`. Replace Cloudinary URLs (`https://res.cloudinary.com/.../w_400/image.jpg`) with imgproxy URLs (`https://imgproxy.example.com/<signature>/w:400/<base64-or-plain-source-url>`). Source images live in S3/MinIO. Put Cloudflare or Bunny.net in front for global edge cache.
