Show HN: Personal avatar generator built in ReasonML

Hey Everyone! We built Personas as a side project from building Draftbit. We started down this path after looking around for a set of colorful avatar icons to use on a project, and couldn't find a set that didn't force us to make some unfortunate choices around gender, race, and age. So we built our own set, and here it is!

The site uses ReasonML to stack SVG's on top of each other, provide unique combinations of attributes. Our current set supports more than 2.5 billion possible permutations!

You can use Personas to create a new icon for slack, social media, product hunt, etc. Or use the (free) Sketch file to build a set for your products or apps, or dig into the source code on GitHub to help us improve and expand Personas for everyone. Cheers!

This is great, but I couldn't make on for myself because there is no "patchy beard" option D:

Didn't know you could use ReasonML w/ GatsyJS. The app is really cute kudos!

Thank you, I should have thought of including Gatsby in the headline
