 # JPEG XL software support
 
 This document attempts to keep track of software that is using libjxl to support JPEG XL.
 This list serves several purposes:
 
 - thank/acknowledge other projects for integrating jxl support
 - point end-users to software that can read/write jxl
 - keep track of the adoption status of jxl
 - in case of a (security) bug in libjxl, it's easier to see who might be affected and check if they are updated (in case they use static linking)
 
 Please add missing software to this list.
