Calligraphy

Calligraphy is a free and open-source Linux app that's all about turning plain text into cool ASCII art banners. Even though we've moved on from the 90s, ASCII art still has its charm! Sure, we're all excited about AI art these days, but there's something nostalgic about creating art with just text.

What Makes Calligraphy Special?

The magic behind Calligraphy comes from pyfiglet. This tool was made by Peter Waller when he was just looking for something fun to do. It takes regular ASCII text and turns it into fancy fonts or banners, kind of like how FIGlet does it. So, if you want to get creative with text and make it pop, this is your go-to app!

User-Friendly Design

One of the best things about Calligraphy is how easy it is to use! You just type your text on the left side of the screen, and bam! The cool ASCII art appears on the right side instantly. Plus, there's a handy copy button right there at the bottom corner if you want to share your creation right away.

A Variety of Styles

This app doesn't hold back when it comes to style options either. With a ton of different ASCII art fonts available, you can really express yourself in unique ways. Whether you're a total 90s fan or just love adding some nostalgia to your chats online, Calligraphy has got you covered.

Perfect for GNOME Users

While Calligraphy can be set up on any Linux distribution, it's mainly designed for GNOME environments. It also follows the GNOME Code of Conduct, so you know it's all about good vibes!
