Include image-q library into your project

ES6 module
// will import ESM (ESNext) or UMD version depending on your bundler/node
import * as iq from 'image-q';
CommonJS
var iq = require('image-q');
As a global variable (Browser)
<script
  src="<path-to image-q/dist/umd/image-q.js>"
  type="text/javascript"
  charset="utf-8"
></script>

How to use

Please refer to API Documentation and Usage

Be sure to fix rgb2xyz/xyz2lab. Issue is with strange part of code: r = r > 0.04045 ? .... Check http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lab_color_space
