28## Introduction
29
30Boost.GIL is a part of the [Boost C++ Libraries](http://github.com/boostorg).
31
f67539c2 32The Boost Generic Image Library (GIL) is a **C++11** library that abstracts image
92f5a8d4
TL
33representations from algorithms and allows writing code that can work on a
34variety of images with performance similar to hand-writing for a specific image type.

55**NOTE:** The library source code is currently being modernized for C++11.
56
57The Boost Generic Image Library (GIL) requires:
58
59- C++11 compiler (GCC 4.9, clang 3.3, MSVC++ 14.0 (1900) or any later version)
60- Boost header-only libraries
61
62Optionally, in order to build and run tests and examples:
63
64- Boost.Filesystem
65- Boost.Test
f67539c2 66- Headers and libraries of libjpeg, libpng, libtiff, libraw for the I/O extension and some of examples.
