In plain words
This tool generates ASCII logo SVGs from command line input, designed for users who want to create vector graphics suitable for laser cutting. It converts text-based ASCII art into scalable vector format, making it useful for makers and hobbyists preparing designs for laser engraving or cutting machines. The tool automates the process of transforming simple ASCII characters into files ready for fabrication.

From the sources
A command-line tool for creating ASCII text art and converting it to SVG logos. I built this so I can generate a ASCII logo and run it through my laser cutter. Example: npm install -g ascii-logo-generator Usage Generate ASCII Art # Basic usage ascii-logo generate " Hello World " # Use a specific font ascii-logo generate " Hello World " --font " Standard " # Save to a file ascii-logo generate " Hello World " --output hello.txt Convert to SVG # Generate an SVG ascii-logo generate " Hello World " --svg # Customize SVG colors ascii-logo generate " Hello World " --svg --color " #3366FF " --background " #EEEEEE " # Set custom dimensions ascii-logo generate " Hello World " --svg --width 800…from github.com

turn videos into ASCII art (open source, js+canvas)2024 · collidingscopes.github.io · ▲121This tool turns videos into ASCII pixel art. You can use your webcam feed or upload a video, then use the controls to adjust the colors, resolution, text style, etc. Github repo: https://github.com/collidingScopes/ascii It's built with javascript / html canvas. I'll be continuing to work on this, with the goal of improving performance (it can be laggy at high resolutions) and to also allow image input (turn an image into animated ASCII art). Please let me know of any feedback or suggestions!

Talanoa▲346Hi 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…
