Thumbhash is a compact representation of a placeholder for an image.

⚠️ I highly recommend to have Imagick extension installed on your computer. GD extension has only 7 bits of alpha channel resolution, and 127 is transparent, 0 opaque. While the library will still work, you may have different image between platforms. [See on stackoverflow](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/41079110/is-it-possible-to-retrieve-the-alpha-value-of-a-pixel-of-a-png-file-in-the-0-255)
