A PySide6 GUI for masking pixels in FITS astronomical images.
A Vibe Coded project infused with my own ideas and creativity.
pip install maskfitsThis puts the maskfits command on your PATH.
To work on maskfits itself, clone the repo and install it editable (recommended: inside a virtual environment) instead:
git clone https://github.com/jnpippert/maskfits.git
cd maskfits
python3 -m venv .venv # optional
source .venv/bin/activate # optional
pip install -e .maskfits # starts the raw application
maskfits image1 image2 ... imageN # loads N images on start
maskfits -m s -z 2 # starts in satellite mode and 2x zoom
maskfits --help # shows all available CLI arguments
