--- [中文](./README_zh-CN.md) | **English** ## 📖 Overview **PicGo aims to make image uploading a seamless part of your creative workflow.** Whether you’re writing a blog post, taking notes, or authoring developer docs, PicGo helps you upload images in one step and automatically copies the resulting link—so you can stay focused on creating, not uploading. ### Supported Image hosts PicGo supports mainstream Image hosts out of the box, and can be extended indefinitely through its plugin system: - **China cloud vendors**: Qiniu, Tencent Cloud COS, UPYUN, Alibaba Cloud OSS - **International / open platforms**: GitHub, SM.MS(S.EE), Imgur - **More options via plugins**: AWS S3, Cloudflare R2, MinIO, and more > **Note**: PicGo itself will no longer add new third-party Image hosts by default. You can build Image host plugins yourself—see [PicGo-Core](https://docs.picgo.app/core/). ## ✨ Key Features PicGo is built around a fast, low-friction image upload experience: ### ⚡ Smooth writing flow - **Auto-copy links**: once an upload finishes, the link is copied to your clipboard automatically. - **Flexible formats**: Markdown, HTML, URL, custom templates—paste directly into any editor. - **Zero-Context Switching**: Don't switch windows. Just paste images directly into your favorite editor, and let PicGo handle the upload in the background. - _Enable this workflow via native support or community plugins:_ [Obsidian](https://obsidian.md) \ [VS Code](https://code.visualstudio.com/) \ [Typora](https://typora.io/) \ [Neovim](https://neovim.io/) \ [MarkText](https://marktext.me/) \ [SiYuan](https://b3log.org/siyuan/en/) \ And more... ### 🚀 Fast uploads - **Multiple ways to upload**: drag & drop, paste from clipboard, hotkeys, and even right-click context menu upload on macOS/Windows. - **Global hotkey**: press `Command+Shift+U` (macOS) / `Ctrl+Shift+U` (Windows/Linux) to open the upload window without leaving your current app. The global key can be customized. ### 🧩 Powerful plugin ecosystem - **Highly extensible**: plugins already exist for AWS S3, Cloudflare R2, MinIO, and many other Image hosts. - **Even more possibilities**: image compression, watermarking, renaming, Markdown image migration, and more. - Explore plugins: [Awesome-PicGo](https://github.com/PicGo/Awesome-PicGo) ### 🛠 Developer-friendly - **HTTP API**: upload via HTTP requests (v2.2.0+), making it easy to integrate with other tools. - **Open source**: fully open-source and transparent. - **Great documentation**: detailed docs help you get started quickly. For plugin development, see the [PicGo-Core docs](https://docs.picgo.app/core/). > There’s more to discover—development progress is tracked in [Projects](https://github.com/Molunerfinn/PicGo/projects).

Linux has not been fully tested. If you want to learn, contribute, modify, or build PicGo yourself: > For an Electron-vue learning series, see: [Electron-vue development](https://molunerfinn.com/tags/Electron-vue/) 1. Install Node.js and Git, and make sure you’re familiar with npm basics. 2. Clone the repo: `git clone https://github.com/Molunerfinn/PicGo.git` and enter the directory. 3. Install dependencies with `pnpm`. If you don’t have it yet, install it from the [pnpm website](https://pnpm.io/installation) first. 4. On macOS you’ll need Xcode; on Windows you’ll need Visual Studio. 5. For contributing, see [CONTRIBUTING.md](./CONTRIBUTING.md). ### Development mode Run `pnpm run dev` to start the dev workflow with hot reload. Note: dev mode can be unstable and the process may crash—if that happens: ```bash ctrl+c # stop dev mode pnpm run dev # restart ``` > On Windows, after dev mode starts, PicGo’s tray icon will appear in the bottom-right system tray area. ### Production build To build release artifacts locally, run `pnpm run build`. After a successful build, the installer files will be generated under `dist`. **Note**: If your network is unstable, `electron-builder` may fail to download Electron binaries. You can set an alternative mirror before building: ```bash export ELECTRON_MIRROR="https://npmmirror.com/mirrors/electron/" # On Windows: set ELECTRON_MIRROR=https://npmmirror.com/mirrors/electron/ (no quotes) pnpm run build ``` Electron binaries are stored under `~/.electron/`. If you need to refresh them, delete that directory and rebuild. ## Related Projects - [vs-picgo](https://github.com/PicGo/vs-picgo): PicGo for VS Code. - [flutter-picgo](https://github.com/PicGo/flutter-picgo): mobile app (Android & iOS). - [PicHoro](https://github.com/Kuingsmile/PicHoro): another mobile app compatible with PicGo config (Android only for now). ## Sponsorship If you like PicGo and it helps your workflow, feel free to buy me a coffee.
