Looks like it is based on stb_image which is good for common formats - jpg, png etc but doesn't support modern formats such as webp and heif. Might be worth it to go with GraphicsMagick instead like timg [1] which I use daily.

But looks like a good minimal and portable project.

Thanks for the answer, I focused my project on minimalism and small size so that it would work anywhere.
