• Error Notifications: Alerts you if any issue arises, such as missing folders or invalid inputs.
• Temporary File Management: Automatically cleans up temporary files after processing.

Folder Structure Example

project-directory/
├── realesrgan-ncnn-vulkan   # AI model Linux executable
├── cwebp                   # Compression Linux executable
├── src/                    # Application source code
└── models/                 # realesrgan models

Troubleshooting

• Ensure the realesrgan-ncnn-vulkan and cwebp executables are properly configured and executable.
• Verify that JavaFX is installed if the application does not launch.
• Confirm that input and output folder permissions allow file reading and writing.
