🌸 NAME 🌸

Tk::PNG — PNG loader for Tk::Photo, periodt. This is the PNG(3) page from the perl/Tk Documentation, bestie, and it's literally all about loading PNGs into Tk photos. Iconic.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

Okay so you just do this, no cap:

use Tk;
use Tk::PNG;

my $image = $widget->Photo('-format' => 'png', -file => 'something.png');

That's the whole vibe. Slay.
