[njgreb]

Description

Fixes the removal of the amazing ascii art with project name change.

Testing

Run it, toggle the env var ASCII_BANNER to see the different options.

Haha, you miss it?

[njgreb]

I don't miss it anymore...BECAUSE I PUT IT BACK :)

[jef]

Let me think about it 😆 I think we can have this go in, but maybe we can talk about the ASCII art. This one in particular is pretty big. What do you think?

[njgreb]

Yeah, this particular font is a bit big...could easily go with a font like the original had:

I would fix the spacing around the hyphen by hand though.

[jef]

I think I prefer hyphen-less, no space. I thought about using 'Bloody' then I went to the full-width text.

[njgreb]

If we go with Bloody I am adding the option to pick the font color!

[jef]

Haha, I love it. Thanks for the back and forth on this. I didn't want to dictate what font we choose here, but here we are.

Talking about customization... https://www.npmjs.com/package/figlet this doesn't have any dependencies. Could be fun to bring this in. What do you think?

[njgreb]

You read my mind. Was just looking at a few ASCII art renderers. Will probably play with it separate from this over the weekend.

[jef]

That being said, I suppose we can pull this in and you can make another PR if you'd like. What would you like to do?

[njgreb]

I think merge this and then we continue a larger talk about the state of the frontend else where.
