Wplacepixel.run – Browser pixel art generator for Wplace

Hacker News

Hi HN, I just launched wplacepixel.run, a browser-based pixel art generator for the Wplace community. It converts images into pixel art using the official 63-color Wplace palette and provides real-time stats like pixel count and color usage. All processing happens client-side in the browser—no uploads or server required. Curious what people think about in-browser pixel art generation: performance trade-offs, color quantization approaches, or other optimizations you’d do.
