mabel 🍁
Declarative pixel art 🎨
Sometime ago i found a really cute project called tep that generates images based on its own .tep format! I had problems with it that prevented me from actually using it. Namely that you cannot control the scale of each "pixel".
Mabel uses the same approach to generate simple pixel images in a declarative, reproducible manner!
Installation
crates.io
cargo install mabel
Usage
Mabel uses the eno data language. Initially i was going to write my own format, but i found eno and a ready parser for it in rust. It is quiet similar to what i had planned, only better. You can learn more about eno here.
