BLACK, SHADOW, HIGHLIGHT and WHITE were four bumps summed into the identity, and the sum carried a guard: the two bumps of a half shared a slope, so past a total of 1 the curve folded backwards, and the ceiling that stopped it was shared by the amplitudes of a half. A stock already sitting on SHADOW therefore took BLACK's lift down with it — on the monochrome stock (sh = -0.24) BLACK at -100 came back with 0.663 of the travel the knob has on its own, which is the "kéo theo sự thay đổi của thông số khác" report exactly. thay_doi_thong_so_giong_lightroom.md section 2 asks for four WINDOWS instead: each knob owns a compact band of the ramp and is exactly zero outside it, and the four moves are applied ONE AFTER ANOTHER rather than summed. A composition of monotone maps is monotone by construction, so it needs no guard, and each knob then measures 1.00 of its travel on every stock. BLACKS is the doc's toe — u = clamp(1 - L/0.18, 0, 1) cubed, opened by sqrt(L) - L at 0.7 and deepened by 0.85, both of which are exactly zero at L = 0, so (0,0,0) stays (0,0,0): the grey pedestal that BLACK +100 left on a black was the sum adding its bump's height at the black point, which is the doc's own "Milky / Foggy". SHADOWS is the doc's bell over the deep tones, HIGHLIGHTS the bell over the bright ones, WHITES the doc's Hermite on the shoulder from 0.80. The ramp keeps its two anchors — 0.00 and 1.00 — at every setting of the four knobs. One deliberate departure from the doc: HIGHLIGHT carries a (1 - L) the doc's raw knee does not, because pow(L - 0.5, 1.5) added to L overshoots the cube above 0.94 — 17% of the ramp driven to flat white at +100 before the clamp. Read against the headroom that is left, the move is zero at L = 1 by construction and the head rolls instead of clipping. The windows are read in the sRGB-encoded luma this file already works in, not in linear light as the doc's section 1 sets out: the doc's own boundaries (0.18, 0.05..0.45, 0.55..0.95, 0.80) land as perceptual positions there, and moving the whole renderer to the linear domain is a bigger change than this pass. The divergence is the one the scratchpad compat doc already warns the Android port about, and it is noted at the windows themselves. Checked: `tsc --noEmit` clean; `highlight-knee-check.mjs`, `tone-base-check.mjs` and `mask-wb-check.mjs` updated to the four windows and passing; the twin ramp over a 1/512 grid is monotone to -0.00119 (0.30 code values, at t = 0.098 with every knob at full negative), both anchors hold for every combination, and a knob outside its band is the exact identity.
RecipesCam
RecipesCam is a camera and photo-editing app built around recipes — reusable
looks that carry a film simulation plus a full set of adjustments. You shoot or
open a photo, dial in a look, and keep it as a recipe you can apply again, share
as a .recipe file, or save to your account.
It ships twice from one repository: a React Native (Expo) app for iOS and
Android, and a self-contained web build under docker/ that runs the same
render pipeline in the browser.
What it does
- Shoot with a recipe applied. Live viewfinder, GPS-tagged captures, and the recipe baked into the saved file.
- Film simulations. Built-in looks — PROVIPES, VELVIPES, CLASSIC CHRIPES, CLASSIC NEGIPES, ASTIPES, ETERNIPES, ACRIPES, B&W HIGH CONTRAST and the LC STREETLIFE pair — each with its own grain and tone curve.
- The full adjustment set. Exposure, contrast, highlights and shadows, saturation, colour temperature, clarity, grain, and an HSL mixer with a colour picker that samples straight off the photo.
- Geometry. Crop to a fixed ratio or free-form, quarter turns, and a straighten ruler, plus printed frames (classic border, retro instant, wall frame portrait/landscape).
- Finishing. Watermark and GPS stamp, EXIF carried through the export, JPEG written with a proper 300 DPI JFIF header.
- On-device upscaling. A Real-ESRGAN pass runs locally when an export asks for more pixels than the source has — no server sees the photo.
- Recipes. Save, favourite, export and import
.recipefiles; the web build keeps them in your account, the phone build also keeps them on device.
The two builds
| Build | Where | Stack |
|---|---|---|
| iOS / Android | repo root | Expo + React Native, @shopify/react-native-skia for the render pipeline, NativeWind for styling |
| Web | docker/ |
Vite + React, CanvasKit (canvaskit-wasm) for the same pipeline, Fastify + SQLite API for accounts and recipes |
The render engine is shared by design: the web build compiles the app's own
src/utils/* and type definitions unchanged, with @shopify/react-native-skia
aliased to a CanvasKit shim (docker/frontend/src/engine/skiaShim.ts). A look
looks the same on both because it is the same code.
Running the web build
cd docker
cp .env.example .env
docker compose up -d --build
# → http://localhost:8090
Photos never leave the browser: grading, framing, watermarking and JPEG
encoding all run in the visitor's tab; the API only stores accounts and recipe
JSON. See docker/README.md for the layout and the proxy setup.
Running the app
npm install
npx expo start # Expo Go / dev client
npx expo run:android # or run:ios for a native build
