Browse images in folders, tag them, and enjoy full-screen viewing, basic image editing, RAW file support, and seamless integration with other KDE apps.
Gwenview is a free and open source image viewer and management utility for the KDE desktop environment. It is designed to be a lightweight, fast, and easy-to-use application that fulfills all basic image viewing needs for casual users while also providing more advanced features for power users.
Some key features and capabilities of Gwenview include:
As a native KDE application, Gwenview fits seamlessly into Plasma desktop workflows. It can be used standalone for quickly viewing a folder of images, or integrated as the default image viewer for KDE applications like Dolphin file manager and GTK image editors like GIMP. Advanced users can even utilize its capabilities in scripting and automation tasks to manage large image collections.
While Gwenview may not offer the exhaustive professional-level features found in commercial programs like Adobe Lightroom, its speed, ease of use, tight desktop integration, and adherence to open standards make it a great choice for most casual photographers and Linux users looking for an everyday image viewer.
