## About

## What it does
Image Flipper flips an uploaded image horizontally or vertically and returns the transformed file as binary output.

Send a file plus a `direction` of `horizontal` or `vertical`. You can also provide `format` as `png` or `jpeg` when you want to control the image type of the result. The endpoint accepts image files up to 15 MB, which makes it suitable for common app assets, uploaded photos, or generated graphics that need orientation changes before storage or delivery.

Use Image Flipper when you need to mirror product photos for a storefront, correct an image layout for a UI, or create alternate compositions from the same source asset. Because the response is the processed image itself, you can pass it straight into your next upload, download, or media-processing step without extra parsing.
