Inspiration

Was playing around with plugins and stumbled upon figlet!

What it does

Allows users to type what they want and turn it into ASCII Text! A pleasant viewing experience for users to twiddle with colors and fonts.

How we built it

We used react for the frontend relying on keyDownEvents to render input

Challenges we ran into

We couldn't query gpt with plugins so we tried to use langchain to evoke the plugin api. We made a backend because gpt was being funky in javascript... but we ran into a dead end in python as well (ugh)

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We had a lot of fun and built something we think looks pretty good! (even if it doesn't work yet haha)

What we learned

We learned how to communicate more efficiently as a team and met many cool fellow hackers along the way!

What's next for Ascii Sandbox

GPT should release plugin support via their api or we will figure out how to more effectively send requests.
