A shout-out image generation API template.
It generates an image with a thank your message and a contour background. Each contour is unique and derived from the username.

The whole thing is powered by an image generation API. The shout-out image is implemented as a React component. A Netlify Functions handles the requests, spins-up a headless browser with Playwright to screenshot the DOM 📸 And returns an image.
It's a pared back version of Christopher Biscardi's wonderful Building an OpenGraph image generation API course.
The build setup is configured via the Makefile.
$ cd image-component
$ npm i
$ npm run storybook
