## Description

This plugin includes several enhancements to the WordPress Media Library that can
be used within specialized themes or separately. The plugin allows users to quickly
organize all their media into folders. You can easily drag and drop images into 
folders and change the tree view of the folders as you wish. The plugin also allows
you to calculate the dominant color for all images in your Media Library (which 
can then be used in different blocks or shortcodes), add different categories and
tags to images, create a set of media sizes to display Responsive Images, and much
more.

### Folders Features

### Other Features

 * Provides an API for getting the dominant color and updating it
 * Allows you to add post categories and post tags for images

   detail
