Turned a random screenshot into ASCII art in about 10 seconds, no signup, no upload to some server - it all runs locally in the browser which is exactly what a tool like this should do. The before/after comparison and preset tuning (detail, color) made it easy to dial in something usable for a README instead of just a generic ASCII blob. Export options (TXT, PNG, SVG, HTML, ANSI) cover basically every use case I could think of, from a GitHub README to a Discord mascot.

I really appreciate the fine little details you put into presenting this small tool. The icon, the monotype typo, the compare view, and all the adjustment options. Beautiful work!

left a review above - the local-only, no-signup angle is the right call for a tool like this. I made a README banner out of the built-in jellyfish example and exported as HTML since I wanted it to keep the color for GitHub's rendered markdown rather than flattening it to plain TXT. curious if the SVG export keeps the same crispness at different zoom levels or if it's really tuned for one fixed size.
