LeafView 1.4.3.0 (MIT License)

Enjoy your pictures and photos with the help of this minimalist, fast, and privacy-oriented image viewer available on the Microsoft Store

The default image viewer (Photos) of Windows 10 is pretty decent both in terms of features and looks, and it caters to most users' needs. However, if you're looking for something with a bit more features, there are plenty of extremely good image viewers out there.

Probably the most uncomplicated image viewer out there

But, how about something even simpler than the standard Windows 10 image viewer? If you're into clean, lean, minimalists designs when it comes to image viewers, then you might want to check out LeafView.

LeafView is a Microsoft Store app designed with some of the latest web technologies such as Electron and Leaflet.js. Its main focus is being as simple and as fast as possible.

Another great advantage is the fact that the app is designed to be as resource-friendly as possible, and it's also worth noting that your personal information stays safe during its use as the app does not collect any privacy-related info.

What do u get with LeafView?

Well, to be honest, not much. You don't the features that even the most basic image viewers provide. For example, You can't edit pictures, can't copy them to the clipboard, and you can't share or print them.

The app allows you to open various graphic formats, open single or multiple pictures at once, and send them to the Recycle Bin, and that's pretty much it.

To be fair, while by no means impressive, the app's GUI does look rather clean (since there are no menus).

Conclusion

LeafView is a minimalist image viewer that offers its users a WYSIWYG experience. It allows you to view images and send them to the Recycle Bin, and that's pretty much it.
