No PhD required. Just vibes.

## Quick Start

1. Navigate to the [APP](/app) page
2. Drop any image (PNG, JPG, GIF)
3. Adjust settings to your liking
4. Copy or download your ASCII art

That's it. You're now a certified ASCII troll.

| PNG    | [SUPPORTED] |

## Width
Controls the number of characters per line.
- MIN: 30 characters
- MAX: 200 characters
- DEFAULT: 100 characters

Higher width = more detail, bigger file.

- 0.5x: Low contrast (washed out)
- 1.0x: Normal
- 2.0x: High contrast (punchy)

## Character Sets

### Standard (@#$%&*)
Classic ASCII characters. Good for most images.

### Blocks (Block characters)
Uses unicode block elements. Clean and modern.

### Minimal (@. )
Just two characters plus space. High contrast look.

### Detailed (Full ASCII)
70+ characters for maximum detail.

### Binary (10)
Ones and zeros. For that Matrix aesthetic.

### Matrix (Katakana)
Japanese katakana characters. Peak hacker vibes.

## Color Modes

- **B&W**: Pure black characters on white
- **Grayscale**: Gray values preserved
- **Color**: Full RGB color output

## Invert
Swaps light and dark. Use for images with dark backgrounds.

## Overview

Currently, Troll Labs runs entirely client-side.
No API. No servers. No tracking.

Your images never leave your browser.

## Future Plans

We're considering a public API for:
- Batch processing
- Discord/Telegram bots
- On-chain ASCII NFT generation

## Self-Hosting

The source code is available on GitHub.
Clone, build, deploy. NGMI if you can't figure it out.

```bash
git clone https://github.com/trolllabs/ascii
cd ascii
npm install
npm run dev
```

## Is this safe?

Yes. Everything runs in your browser. We don't upload your images anywhere.

## Why is my output blurry?

Increase the width setting for more detail.

## Can I use this commercially?

Yes. Do whatever you want. We're not your lawyer.

## Wen token?

Soon™

## Is this financial advice?

Absolutely not. DYOR. NFA. Probably nothing.

## How do I contact support?

Join our Telegram or DM us on Twitter. We respond when we feel like it.

## Why "Troll Labs"?

Because we're here to troll. In a good way. Mostly.
