24 alternatives to No Paint
Hi, I've been working on this app about making a painting for a few months now and we have just released a new update: (https://nopaint.art) I added commands with parameters you can access by tapping or clicking the grey bar below the No and Paint buttons. You can also use the arrow keys Left and Right for "No" and "Paint". Since launch we have grown a nice Discord community and have been appreciating some ideas and contributions from users. I'm not really sure what we will do next! Would love to hear people's thoughts.
Below are 24 products that do a similar job, ranked by how close each is in meaning and then by launch-day votes. No Paint launched in 2020; newer entries below may have overtaken it.

Around 3 weeks ago, I came across a reddit post from someone who was looking to see if anyone was interested in taking over a 12-14 year old objective c app which hadn't been on the app store for many years. I responded and decided to do it. The app is called Painteresque. It lets you turn photos to charcoal drawings, paintings etc while doing all the processing locally on device: https://apps.apple.com/ca/app/painteresque-photo-to-sketch/i... The app is entirely free to use, has no ads, third party analytics, trackers, subscriptions or other junk. It does offer…

It is a free drawing app that I took the courage to finally reveal after years of development. Main idea was to make drawing from reference effortless but also make an app that makes sketching very realistic especially with pencil. After Importing a reference image the "peek" button and additional slider are unlocked, allowing for quick preview of the reference image and fast changing of the reference image opacity so that you can trace or paint over the reference. The app is still in beta so expect bugs and crashes. In the near future I am going to create a website to describe its features…

Hey everyone, my friend and I created a GitHub Wrapped video for developers to showcase their activity on the platform in a more fun way. The implementation is open-source (https://github.com/rendleyhq/github-wrapped-2024) if you're interested in how it was built. To get a bit geeky, we used masks, keyframe animations, luma key shaders to remove the background from the confetti video, and some other techniques. Also, everything is rendered directly in the browser!! I'm curious to hear your thoughts on the rendering performance, especially if you're running this on your…

Time-to-time, I create a simple small game I can play when I have a few minutes (wink-wink). Made with Angular (no particular reason other than it's the fastest way for me). Source: https://github.com/deejayy/huezz

After a long fought battle, my friend and I finally have our first app (Skill Sketch) in the app store and we're looking for feedback. http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/skill-sketch/id498835340?ls=1&mt=8 The app is a simple drawing game that provides you with a series of random lines (0-4) that you then try to turn into art. When you do something that you like, you can save it to your gallery. Currently we have it listed at 99 cents. Mainly so that we can make back the $99 bucks it cost us to join the Apple Developer Program. Any feedback would be welcome.

orignally shared this on startup school... i thought id' share it here. i'm using a `nocode communication tool` (a web-based interface... a single browser tab!) for all of these things: 1. landing page — the landing page is the product and i wanted for folks to feel "transported" right into the app without having to walk through a shitty b2b marketing-style content. this is akin to my experience back in the `BBS` days of the mid-90's where you were immediately into the app, community, and tool. no terms of service, no privacy policy. just pure, immediate value. 2. building community — we…

Try it at: ssh krnl.duetbrowser.com No sign up, totally free - no download. Let me know what you think. Prior art exists (brow.sh) but I wasn't satisfied with their graphical take. I wanted the raw, old skool terminal days of the early internet - BBS, and old green phosphor library comptuers - but running the modern web, with all the bells and jingle jangle whistles (JavaScript, etc). No funding, no VC, just 100% raw terminal fun. Not sure how long the demo will last, but try it out.
