Ascii Magic Art
Ascii Magic Art is a collection of 634 animated ASCII art pieces for web pages, READMEs, wallpapers and terminals.
Ascii Magic Art offers a library of 634 animated ASCII art pieces including scenes, interfaces, charts, diagrams, 3D shapes, loaders, games, and dividers across 24 categories. Users can browse the library live in the terminal using arrow keys, change looks, and copy prompts to paste into coding agents like Claude Code, Cursor, or Copilot. Pieces can also be played directly in the terminal, embedded on web pages using custom attributes, or used in code as small ES modules with no dependencies. The project supports various character looks such as halftone dots, ASCII, binary, and dither, along with customization options for size, speed, background, and color palettes. It is available under the MIT license, allowing use anywhere including commercial work.
