## Detailed info

## What is CropGuide?

CropGuide is an embeddable image editor widget that resizes, compresses, and crops photos in the browser before they reach a server.

## What CropGuide does

The script connects to existing file upload fields to crop images to fixed aspect ratios, scale down oversized files, fix mobile photo orientation, block low-resolution uploads, and convert formats like HEIC to JPEG.

## Who CropGuide is for

Website operators, developers, and platform creators building on WordPress, Shopify, or custom web applications with user image uploads.
