<ascii-art piece="cloudflare" options='{"shine":5}'></ascii-art>

No install and no build step. ascii.js defines the <ascii-art> tag, loads the piece from ascii.rest, plays it while it is on screen, and holds the first frame for anyone who prefers reduced motion. Add mono, <ascii-art piece="cloudflare" mono>, for one ink.

react

// npm install github:bas3line/ascii
import { Ascii } from "ascii.rest/react";
import { cloudflare } from "ascii.rest/pieces";

<Ascii piece={cloudflare} options={{"shine":5}} />

A client component, so it works in the Next.js app router as it is. Pass the name instead, piece="cloudflare", to fetch the piece only when it mounts. Add mono for one ink.

astro

---
// npm install github:bas3line/ascii
import Ascii from "ascii.rest/astro";
---

<Ascii piece="cloudflare" options={{"shine":5}} />

Renders the first frame on the server, so the page is whole before any script runs, then plays the piece once it loads. Add mono for one ink.

typescript

// npm install github:bas3line/ascii
import { mount } from "ascii.rest";
import { cloudflare } from "ascii.rest/pieces";

const el = document.querySelector<HTMLCanvasElement>("canvas")!;
const stop = mount(el, cloudflare, {"shine":5});

mount plays a piece in a <pre>, or on a <canvas> for the coloured ones, and returns a function that stops it. Every piece, option and frame is typed. Mount it in a <pre> for one ink.

[js] [github] 
/*
 * cloudflare: the Cloudflare logo, an orange cloud, with a glint crossing it
 * every few seconds.
 *
 * Drawn from Simple Icons' cloudflare.svg (CC0): each cell holds the character
 * whose shape best matches the logo's edge through it, and 8 where the logo is
 * solid. On a canvas it takes the logo's colour, lifted on a dark page where
 * it would sink into it; in a <pre> it is one ink, from the same drawing. The
 * logo is a trademark of its owner, shown here to name the company.
