For a while I've wanted a tool to dither images in a consistent format for this blog. I like that they are a) very space efficient, and b) retro.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
I've spun the page up. It's *extremely* MVP, and absolutely not really fit for purpose. For one thing, I'm downloading ~8mb dithered images. Sort of beats the point of compressed, really.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
I wanted to see if I could build a tool to do this in the browser rather than a CLI tool with something like image magick.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
There are a number of (honestly very advanced) dithering tools, like [ditheringstudio.com](https://ditheringstudio.com) and a dedicated subdomain on [sigrist.dev](https://dithering.sigrist.dev).
|

|
|
|

|
|
Sometimes you just want to get your hands dirty and build your own thing.
|
||
|

|
I want to have a way to share (more personal) images on the blog. Photos mean a lot to me, and I'd like some place (that I own) to put them.
