pngquant is no longer needed

johnbillion opened this issue · comments

Tachyon uses pngquant to compress PNG files, but this hasn't been needed since Sharp 0.28 which includes built-in support for generating compressed palette PNGs.

Ref: lovell/sharp#478 (comment)

This means the separate pngquant processing in Tachyon could be replaced with the palette argument for Sharp.

Nice find @johnbillion !
