## Definition

A grayscale converter is a pixel manipulation utility that converts multi-channel color images (RGB) into a single luminance channel. By rendering the source image onto a canvas and applying color matrix transformations, it averages color channels to output standard black-and-white images.

## How to Use

1. **Select color image** — Select a colored image (PNG, JPG, or WebP) for desaturation.
2. **Apply grayscale filter** — The client-side canvas engine converts colored pixels to black and white.
3. **Download output** — Download the compiled grayscale image file to your device.
