From 3 comments
Well done, the app is really smooth even on mobile and I can definitely see it being used for the most common types of image processing. I like the premise of using WebGL and CSS…

Free aspect ratio option is confusing
From 2 comments
Very nice. Suggestion: in the aspect ratio constraint picker, change “free” to “unconstrained”, “variable”, or “fully variable” to avoid the confusion with “no charge”.
sokoloff on HNand free is not actually free. i had a very wide image which i chose 16:9 for then back to free and I could not actually move the box back to the original content
