    Layout Algorithm

    The skill uses an intelligent layout engine that:

    1. Analyzes photo aspect ratios to determine optimal placement 2. Calculates multiple layout options for each page 3. Selects the layout with minimum whitespace 4. Preserves photo proportions without cropping

    Layout Patterns

    | Photos | Layout Strategy | |--------|-----------------| | 1 | Full page, maximized to fill available space | | 2 | Side-by-side or stacked, whichever minimizes whitespace | | 3 | Left-1-Right-2 or Top-1-Bottom-2 based on photo orientations | | 4 | 2Γ—2 adaptive grid with aspect-ratio-aware cell sizing |

    Age Stages

    Photos are automatically grouped by baby's age:

  • Newborn (0-1 month)
  • Early Infant (1-3 months)
  • Mid Infant (3-6 months)
  • Late Infant (6-9 months)
  • Crawling (9-12 months)
  • Early Toddler (1-1.5 years)
  • Mid Toddler (1.5-2 years)
  • Late Toddler (2-3 years)
  • Dependencies

  • Python 3.8+

  • ReportLab (PDF generation)
  • Install dependencies:

    pip install Pillow reportlab
