## Overview

This JPG viewer renders JPEG images locally in your browser. JPEG is the most widely used photo format, so it is ideal for quickly previewing photos from a camera, compressed screenshots or web banners. Pick a sample or choose your own .jpg or .jpeg file to see it rendered at full quality with no upload.

## When to use

- You have a photo and want to view it without opening a dedicated image app.
- You want a quick preview of a JPEG before embedding it in a document or page.
- You are on a device without an image viewer and need to check a .jpg file.

## How it works

- Select a built-in sample or choose your own .jpg / .jpeg file.
- The viewer decodes the JPEG entirely in your browser with no upload.
- Inspect the photo at full resolution, then switch samples or load another file any time.

## Use cases

- Previewing camera photos and compressed screenshots.
- Quickly checking JPEG quality and dimensions before publishing.
- Viewing JPEG images on a locked-down or shared device.
