24bit RGB "AnsiArt" Terminal Image Viewer

In plain words

Terminal Image Viewer is a small C++ program that displays images directly in modern terminals using RGB ANSI color codes and unicode block graphics characters. It is designed for developers and terminal users who want to view images without leaving the command line. The tool converts images into terminal-compatible visual representations, making it useful for workflows that operate primarily in terminal environments.

  Durdraw – a modern ANSI art editor for modern Unix terminals2024 · github.com · ▲154

  I've been working on an ANSI art editor off and on for a while. It works like a traditional ANSI text editor, except it supports 256 colors, Unicode and CP437 encoding, frame-based animation, custom UI themes, terminal mouse input, HTML and IRC color output, and runs in Utf-8 terminals. It's written in Python and curses, and is fairly portable across Unix systems. If you have ever used TheDraw or Aciddraw, the user interface is similar. It can also load/convert, view, edit and save most CP437 (MS-DOS style) ANSI art in a Utf-8 terminal, so you can view ANSI artscene packs in the comfort…

  Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
