#### 2D animation sprite sheet composer, flipbook player and JSON exporter

Sprite Sheet Composer is a desktop 2D illustration and animation sheet layout
studio for combining individual PNG and WebP character frames into organized
image sheets, previewing flipbook motion, and exporting frame coordinate files.
An independent Linux desktop alternative to traditional 2D animation sheet
editors for arranging frame grids, checking motion timing, and generating
coordinate metadata for creative projects.

Key Features:

* Automatic Frame Sheet Layout: Import PNG and WebP artwork frames, crop
  transparent outer margins cleanly, add configurable inner spacing and border
  padding for clean rendering, and arrange frames into power-of-two or compact
  rectangular image sheets.
* Flipbook Animation Player: Preview frame sequences from 1 to 60 FPS with
  Loop, Ping-Pong, and Single-Play modes, onion-skin overlay, pixel-art zoom,
  and an interactive frame boundary viewer.
* Multi-Format Coordinate Exporter: Save composed PNG and WebP sprite sheets
  together with JSON Hash, JSON Array, XML, CSS Sprites, and CSV coordinate
  tables with area utilization statistics.

Disclaimer: This project is an independent open-source tool by TC Studio and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by any third-party animation software vendor.

## Enable snaps on Arch Linux and install Sprite Sheet Composer

Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.

Snaps are discoverable and installable from the [Snap Store](https://snapcraft.io/store), an app store with an audience of millions.

### Enable snapd

On Arch Linux, snap can be installed from the [Arch User Repository (AUR).](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/snapd/)
The [manual build process](https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_User_Repository#Installing_packages) is the Arch-supported
install method for AUR packages, and you’ll need the [prerequisites](https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_User_Repository#Prerequisites)
installed before you can install any AUR package. You can then install snap with the following:

```
git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/snapd.git
cd snapd
makepkg -si
```

Once installed, the *systemd* unit that manages the main snap communication socket needs to be enabled:

```
sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.socket
```

If [AppArmor](https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/AppArmor) is enabled in your system, enable the service which loads AppArmor profiles for snaps:

```
sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.apparmor.service
```

To enable *classic* snap support, enter the following to create a symbolic link between `/var/lib/snapd/snap` and `/snap`:

```
sudo ln -s /var/lib/snapd/snap /snap
```

Either log out and back in again, or restart your system, to ensure snap’s paths are updated correctly.
