The project is primarily a chrome extension, and it involves altering image data and returning it to the user. Throughout the development process, we learned a lot about image data alteration programmatically with the Canvas API in Javascript. We came across some challenges such as the image not removing metadata as soon as image was uploaded. We went around this by setting a trigger boolean which went off when the remove metadata button was clicked. Some other hurdles such as inverting colors were overcome with the help of AI, which cleared up any confusion about unfamiliar libraries or functions.

Whenever you upload an image online you could be unknowingly sharing private information or the image could be traced back to you from other parts of the web.
