+# CgePix - Lightweight Pixel and Image Processing Library for C
+
+A compact, dependency-free C library for pixel manipulation, color handling,
+and image data management.
+
+## Features
+
+- Support for indexed, grayscale, RGB/BGR, RGBA/BGRA/ARGB/ABGR, and packed
+  formats (e.g. RGB565, RGBA1010102)
+- Color types: RGBA, HSVA, HSLA with 16-bit per channel
+- Palette support for indexed images
+- Color space conversion: RGBA - HSVA - HSLA
+- Alpha handling: premultiply and unpremultiply
+- Multiple blending modes: normal, multiply, screen, overlay, darken, lighten,
+  difference, exclusion, and more
+- Subimage view creation and row-wise pixel access
+- Safe pixel get/set with format conversion
+
+## Build Systems
+
+- CMake - supports Linux, macOS, Windows (MSVC, MinGW)
+- Makefile.posix - for GCC/Clang on POSIX systems
+- Makefile.mingw - for MinGW on Windows
+- Makefile.win32 - for MSVC with NMake
+
+Builds a static library. No shared library or external dependencies.
+
+## Usage Example
+
+```c
+#include "CgePix.h"
+#include <stdio.h>
+#include <stdlib.h>
+
+int main() {
+    uint32_t width = 256;
+    uint32_t height = 256;
+
+    CgePix img = {0};
+    int format = CGE_PIX_RGBA8;
+    int flags = 0;
+
+    size_t dataSize = CgePixInitLayout(width, height, format, flags, &img);
+    img.data = malloc(dataSize);
+
+    CgeColor red;
+    CgeColorSetRGBA8(&red, 255, 0, 0, 255);
+
+    for (uint32_t y = 0; y < height; y++) {
+        for (uint32_t x = 0; x < width; x++) {
+            CgePixSetColor(&img, x, y, &red);
+        }
+    }
+
+    FILE *file = fopen("output.raw", "wb");
+    fwrite(img.data, 1, dataSize, file);
+    fclose(file);
+
+    free(img.data);
+    return 0;
+}
+```
