Yes and no. So I did it because I honestly get annoyed with pixel operations in node js. The same thing in Python with the pillow library achieves the same things in quarter the lines of code as you would need in something like sharp in nodes

The other reason I used a Python backend was that I want to extend it to more involved image processing, like producing control net inputs or post processing the end result.

Does that make sense ? Open to better ideas though

yeah it makes sense, but if you’re already offloading everything to replicate.ai it makes less sense

just extra stacks to keep track of and keep up with

yea true. some trade offs. i'm going to look into consolidating everything into just the nextjs piece.
