NightCafe Creator has been my side project for about 6 months. It's a PWA built with TypeScript, React, Next.js and Firebase; and the style transfer jobs run on Algorithmia.
There are plenty of neural style transfer apps online. Some of the features that set mine apart are:
- Multiple style images with relative weights
- Style masks - clip a style to a certain region of the content image
- Free image search built in (via Pexels)
- No signup required to create (uses Firebase's anonymous users)
There are still a lot of improvements to make - I want to improve and speed up the back end algorithm, add public user accounts and the ability to 'like' creations, along with a never-ending list of smaller things like pagination - which I've avoided adding thus far.
This is probably the most effort I've ever put into a side project. Would love to hear your thoughts and am happy to answer any questions.
