Image

Edit

An Image stores raw 2D pixel info for Textures. It has a width, height, and format. The Image can be initialized with the contents of an image file or it can be created with uninitialized contents. The supported image formats are png, jpg, hdr, dds, ktx, and astc.

Usually you can just use Textures, but Image can be useful if you want to manipulate individual pixels, load Textures in a background thread, or use the FFI to efficiently access the raw image data.
