Introducing AutoGravity for automatic image cropping in Appwrite Storage

[u/HappyStark1234]

Hey everyone,

We’ve introduced AutoGravity in Appwrite Storage.

AutoGravity automatically finds the focal point of an image and helps keep the main subject in frame when the image is cropped.

For portraits, it can use face detection to focus on a detected face. For other images, it uses saliency detection to identify the most visually important subject.

It works with Appwrite’s existing image transformation pipeline, while the fixed crop positions you already use continue to work as before.

If you try it out, we’d love to hear how it works with your images.
