Is there a way to link to a number? Or enter a number to view the image?

That is very a good idea! For now it is stateless & frontend-only. But I was thinking on improving it, like a prettier UI and adding a "print" button, or maybe a "export to png". If I ever add a server side to it, it will feature a share & see option.

Afterthought: actually, I was thinking on using IPFS to store stuff, but I do not know if its model applies to this scenario. Feedback is appreciated.

You could link to a number by just adding a query or hash with the base64 encoding of the number in 171 characters. You'd lose the original image of course.

Edit: I bet a RLE would compress down really nicely except for the bottom row if you want to reduce URL sizes

Thanks guys, you can now access a prime dog right there: https://geonnave.github.io/primg/#17976931348623159077293051...
