I'm a big fan of Monodraw and use it frequently for ASCII assets / animations for https://oxide.computer.

I'd love some scripting features, to create and edit designs through code. But I'm aware my use case is a little niche.

That animated ascii art on your site is really cool, something I will definitely have to keep in mind for documenting some of my projects in future.

You "little niche" use case inspired me, really beautiful

Nice! I was wondering if it would be good for making ascii art assets for roguelike games (for example: https://www.gridsagegames.com/blog/2014/12/cogmind-ascii-art... or https://www.markrjohnsongames.com/games/ultima-ratio-regum/) - some of the art you've made for oxide thinks it must be good for that!

The Cogmind dev made his own tool called REXPaint which is mentioned elsewhere on this page.

Yeah I'm very familiar with Josh Ge and Rex - my current project uses rex files for loading images - I just have a lot of metadata I bake in through hacky ways and rex format is not very flexible - rexpaint is great though
