Mantis Shrimp is an image comparison tool written with the MetalSDK. Features: * It's a document application, so you can save your projects and open multiple windows. * It supports any types of images supported by macOS. That includes JPEG, PNG, HEIC, HDR, EXR, and others. * It supports automatic linear RGB conversions. * It supports multiple color spaces, including display-P3 (DCI-P3). * It comes with multiple presets to compare color channels in different ways. * It lets you write and use your custom shaders, using Metal shading language. These can be fragment or mesh shaders. * Shaders come with some predefined functions and variables, including time, so you can use this as a shader sandbox, or "shader toy". * The editor has some basic cpp-based syntax highlighting, with some Metal keywords. * It can record clips in mp4, for animated shaders. Check the manual in the support URL for usage instructions and examples.

Added a record button to record mp4 video (RECORDING ONLY, NO VIDEO PLAYBACK!) * It converts the framebuffer to BGRA (8 bits per channel), regardless of the input. * Supported frame rates: 15, 20, 30, and 60. The "Run" button has been replaced by a "Play" button. It compiles and run the active shader.
