ASCII Art
Turn text into big ASCII banner letters with a built-in pixel font, right in your browser.
Characters outside A-Z, 0-9 and space are skipped.
How to use it
- Type your text in the input box — uppercase and lowercase both work, letters are rendered as capitals.
- Only A-Z, 0-9 and spaces are supported; any other character is skipped silently.
- The banner appears immediately as you type, drawn with
#blocks in a fixed-width layout. - Click Copy to grab the banner as plain text, ready to paste into a README or code comment.
- Use Clear to start over.
Common use cases
- README headers — add a text banner at the top of a project page that renders the same everywhere.
- CLI output — print a banner from a terminal tool where emoji and fonts are unreliable.
- Code comments — mark section boundaries in large files with a readable divider.
- Plain-text emails or MOTD — decorate text-only channels without images.
Why it stays private
The pixel font is embedded in the page and the banner is assembled by local JavaScript. Nothing is sent anywhere, so the tool works offline and is safe for project names you have not announced yet.
FAQ
Q: Can I use lowercase letters? A: Lowercase input is accepted but rendered as the same capital glyphs — the font only contains one shape per character, which keeps the output aligned.
Q: Why was my punctuation removed? A: The built-in font covers A-Z, 0-9 and space only. Adding punctuation glyphs would triple the font table for little gain; unsupported characters are skipped rather than breaking the layout.
Q: How do I keep the banner aligned after pasting?
A: Paste into a monospaced context — a fenced code block in Markdown, a <pre> tag, or a terminal. Proportional fonts collapse the spacing and ruin the shape.
Your data stays on this device
ASCII Art runs 100% locally. Everything you paste or drop is processed by your own browser and never transmitted. Nothing is stored on our servers — close the tab and it is gone.
Nothing you type is sent to a server, logged, or used for analytics. The page works even with your network disconnected after first load.
