Show HN: Kipplr – Draw abstract images in seconds
- gioscarab 11y agoHi! I made this opensource single page application to master javascript language and in general programming. I had really much fun experimenting with capabilities (and limits) of canvas with this project. This is the source code: https://github.com/gioblu/Kipplr https://github.com/gioblu/Kipplr After a lot of testing i found this tool able to render 10.000x10.000px (or more with certain browsers like firefox) abstract pictures in seconds. Images before impossible to be created by hand with photoshop or illustrator now can be rendered with Kipplr!! So can be used to generate huge unique pictures (1mx1m) in seconds! I hope you will like!
- et2o 11y agoWhat does the name mean?
- sliekasbekelniu 11y agoThe 'INFO' button on the app says: 'Kipplr's name is inspired by Philip K. Dick's novel "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?" and by the concept of "Kipple"'.
- david-given 11y agoIs that all a custom UI, or are you using a UI library? (A quick look at the code didn't show anything obvious other than jquery/zepto.) I ask because I'm going to want to do something like that soon, and it's really slick.
- flashman 11y agoA useful option would be tiling: if a polygon crosses the frame edge, draw the rest of it on the opposite edge. This would let me use the tool to generate repeating patterns.
- gioscarab 11y agoCiao flashman this is a really intelligent suggetion I never took in consideration I will immediatly estimate the code effort to make it as you say
- organian 11y agoCould you add an option to edit each value as a number as well as a slider? Sometimes you want to get the same value again, and you can't get the slider in the same position as before. Loving the app :D
