Turn Your Photos into String Art with Code and Creativity 🎨🧡

Have you ever wondered how art and code can merge into something unique?
Recently, I’ve been experimenting with transforming ordinary photos into string art portraits β€” the kind you usually see handcrafted with nails and threads.

Instead of spending days hammering and weaving, I built a small tool that generates patterns automatically. You just upload an image, adjust a few parameters like nail count and line density, and instantly preview the result.

πŸ‘‰ Try it here: https://stringartgenerator.art/#string-art-generator

Some of the key features I worked on:

Upload any image (JPG/PNG)

Customize nail count, line density, and colors

Preview results instantly

Download patterns for DIY projects

It’s still evolving, so I’d love to hear feedback from the community.
What kind of images would you try first β€” portraits, landscapes, or abstract patterns?
