HEIC to JPEG Converter

A simple and lightweight executable for converting .heic files to .jpg.

Description

During a flight/travel, driven by the frustration of not finding an efficient free tool, I wrote this program to convert .heic images to .jpg. Simply place it in a directory with .heic files, and on execution, it will save the converted .jpg images in a "jpegs" subfolder. It's written with concurrency and multi-threading for optimized performance.

Features

• Converts .heic files to .jpg format.
• Automatically detects .heic files in the current directory.
• Saves the converted .jpg files in a dedicated subfolder.
• Extremely fast, utilizing multi-threading and concurrency.
• Provides a log file with details of the conversion.

Usage

1. Download the executable(.exe) in the repo.
2. Place the executable in a directory containing .heic files.
3. Run the executable.
4. Check the jpegs subfolder for the converted .jpg images.

Sample Output

Here's a snippet from a typical logs.txt generated by the program:
