Looks nice! + +![loupe image viewer][1] + +The folks over at GNOME have been busy! + +Recently, you might have heard that they are [considering][2] bringing back the terminal app to replace the new console, then there's the [new camera app][3] set to replace Cheese in the near future. + +You might have missed something else we did not cover among those core GNOME app changes. + +**A new image viewer app for GNOME called 'Loupe'**. It has been accepted into GNOME's [Incubator Group][4]. + +Allow me to take you through this. + +> 💡 The 'Incubator' group contains projects set to be part of GNOME Core and GNOME Development tools, signifying that **this might someday make it into a GNOME release**. + +### 🆕 Loupe: What is it? + +![a screenshot of loupe image viewer][5] + +So, as I was saying, this is a new image viewer app for GNOME, **written in the memory-safe Rust programming language,** and offers some cool features. + +Take, for instance, the on-screen buttons to switch through various photos, zoom in/out, go into full-screen mode, and more. + +Then there's the metadata viewer that has been integrated nicely into the interface, showing data such as the **location, size, resolution, date of creation,** etc. + +![a screenshot of the metadata tool on loupe][6] + +That's not all; Loupe also supports keyboard and trackpad shortcuts! See for yourself. + +![a screenshot of the keyboard and trackpad shortcuts on loupe][7] + +These keyboard/trackpad shortcuts and gestures should be convenient for laptop users. + +This is a nice touch 🤗 + +Also, how can I forget about the the **copy to clipboard**, **move to trash** and **print image** options that can be accessed from the ribbon-menu and the header, respectively? + +Here's that in action: + +0:00 + +/ + +1× + +It's neat, isn't it? + +I must say, Loupe has a nifty set of features I see myself using daily while going through my photos. + +It aims to replace the existing [Eye of GNOME][8] (eog) Image Viewer, maybe with the release of GNOME 45, barring any issues, of course. + +### 📥 Get Loupe + +You can grab Loupe from the [Flathub store][9], and also explore its source code on [GitLab][10]. + +[Loupe (Flathub)][9] + +_💬 What do you think?
