But Why ?

Games and real-time applications, in general, tend to prefer images and textures with power-of-two dimensions, because they make it easier to generate mipmaps, consume less GPU memory, and increase the overall performance for shader operations.

However, finding the right power-of-two values for each dimension of each texture of each model in your application sounds time-consuming, and it is. ⚡PW² born from the necessity to make this a no-brainer, quick and easy process.

This application was developed for the cs50 Final Project assignment and as a use case of ⚡PW² library.
