chafa

Chafa supports outputting to all popular terminal graphics formats according to the Chafa website: Sixels, Kitty, iTerm2, Unicode mosaics.

For HNers, 'chafa' in Argentinian/Chilean Spanish (and a few more) means tacky, crude, ripoff, low quality.

There should ve a variable to choose your inline image reader, between chafa, timg, some wrapper around w3mimgdisplay...

One of the really cool things about chafa is that it has both sixel and kitty graphic renderers!

So if you get rid of the colors in Chafa you end up with something similar to the article.

There's a lot of tools to view the images, chafa is a good one.

Ended up just using chafa [3] with the hope of coming back to ascii rendering after everything is working end to end.

You could also take a look at chafa[0] for supporting terminals without sixel.

Also while Jupyter does supports images other notebooking ecosystems may not, and anyway you need a file whereas chafa can work with streams.

I use chafa extensively, and it really is the best tool for terminal graphics in my opinion.

And offpunk has been built for use with chafa since the start.

I use chafa in term.everything[0], and I have nothing but good things to say about it!

Chafa looks cool, i'd feel cool using it when i use a terminal but if really wanted to see an image id just open it in a image viewer.
