Draw2Img: A simple web UI for interactive text-guided image to image generation for all ages

The children in my family love to draw and are beginning to explore digital drawing tools, but they've been somewhat discouraged by the complexity of popular software like GIMP, Photoshop, etc. I was motivated to create a tool that encouraged their artistic creativity and also piqued their technical curiosity.

With the release of SDXL-Turbo in late Nov 2023, it became feasible to perform text-guided image to image generation in real-time on a consumer grade GPU. Inspired by this progress and my little cousins' artwork, I put together a web app that integrates an interactive canvas & paint tool with the capabilities of SDXL-Turbo.

The project is called Draw2Img, and I want to share it here in the hopes that you or your family enjoys it as much as we have. What makes this project unique is the combination of:

1) a simple and accessible web based UI for younger or non-technical users

2) the stunning speed & quality of image generation

3) user friendly & LAN party ready (easy to run, multiple concurrent users supported)

Thanks in advance for your feedback and support, cheers!
