Irfan Skiljan (IrfanView)

IrfanView is the long-standing image viewer and lightweight multimedia utility created and maintained by developer Irfan Skiljan. First released in the mid-1990s, IrfanView has been distributed primarily as freeware for non-commercial use and is known for its small footprint, fast performance, broad file-format support, and a rich plugin architecture. The project targets Microsoft Windows and provides features such as batch conversion/renaming, simple image editing, slideshows, screen capture, and support for many legacy and modern image, audio, and video formats.

The software is primarily the work of its single author, Irfan Skiljan, and has gained a large user base over many years thanks to its reliability and extensibility via official plugins. IrfanView is not an open-source project; distribution is handled through the official website where installers for 32- and 64-bit Windows and plugin packages are published. The project has been maintained and updated intermittently by Skilja...
