| Hey HN! Check out this fun tool I built to make cover images for my blog. The main goal: interesting looking random gradients, that all draw from a single color palette. I stumbled upon this post from Justin Jay Wang [1], who designed for OpenAI - describing methods for random gradients, including the one that shipped on OpenAI’s homepage from 2020-2022. Since the post included ~10 SVGs, I was able to reverse engineer the SVG parameters, and decided to put up a generator. You can see the exact deets in my Github README [2]. I also use it to generate cover images for my Substack [3] - if you want to see what using a bunch of images generated by it looks like.
