VGG Image Annotator (VIA) is a simple and standalone manual annotation tool for image, audio and video. The VIA software is a light weight, standalone and offline software package that does not require any installation or setup and runs solely in a web browser. The complete VIA software fits in a single self-contained HTML page of size less than 500 kilobyte that runs as an offline application in most modern web browsers. VIA software is an open source project created solely using HTML, Javascript and CSS. More details about VIA is available from http://www.robots.ox.ac.uk/~vgg/software/via.
We have nurtured a large and thriving open source community which not only provides feedback but also contributes code to add new features and improve existing features in the VIA software. The open source ecosystem of VIA thrives around its source code repository hosted by the Gitlab platform. Most of our users report issues and request new features for future releases using the issue portal. Many of our users not only submit bug reports but also suggest a potential fix for these software issues. Some of our users also contribute code to add new features to the VIA software using the merge request portal. A list of our contributors is available here.
Thanks to the flexibility provided by our BSD open source software license, many industrial projects have adapted the VIA software for internal or commercial use.
