I have a printer, and sometimes I like to print some of our family happy snaps out as polaroid-style photos to stick to the fridge. I don't want to print the photo full size, and sometimes I want to do it straight from my phone or tablet, where things like using MS Word is a tad cumbersome.

This web-app allows for the arranging, resizing and cropping of photos on a sheet of paper, after which a printable PDF is generated which can be sent to the printer.

This way, you can run of a batch of photos in a single go, and minimize paper wastage, which is nice if you have the extra-premium photo paper loaded in the printer.

Up to now I've used a paid app for this when on my android tablet, but I was never happy with how it worked. Things like Word or other document/image editors felt too cumbersome for quickly setting up a batch of photos to print. So I decided to build my own.

It's super simple to use, mobile friendly (sort of), local only, offline capable with no external dependencies or a backend. I'm enamored with using web technologies for simple tools like this, that can be bookmarked and used on any device. The sad reality though is that many of these tools (these days) require an account, your data makes a round-trip to someone else's server or they apply a watermark to the output if you don't pay.

I'm happy to put this out for free, for the world to use. And I have zero desire to update or productise this any further. I look forward to solving my next asinine problem in this way, by creating some home-baked software that will probably see a peak user count of 1.
