PwshPaint: A pixel art editor for the terminal in PowerShell
Love the work with httplistener here:
https://github.com/ShaunLawrie/PwshPaint/blob/main/PwshPaint...
I've done considerable work with it and niche cases like this the at a teensy bit of web to PowerShell is a perfect usecase

PwshPaint on PowerShell Gallery
I finally got around to figuring out how to publish modules to powershell gallery for the personal project I shared last month which I renamed PwshPaint because I think it makes more sense. The whole workflow was surprisingly simple and I should have published it as a module in the first place 😂 the GitHub workflow I’m using to publish it is in the repo https://github.com/ShaunLawrie/PwshPaint

PwshPaint: A pixel art editor for the terminal in PowerShell
Damn, and I thought I loved powershell. This is awesome.
Another of the author's projects sits solidly between awesome and terrifying: https://github.com/ShaunLawrie/PwshRayTracer
> A very slow raytracer in PowerShell that has been optimised from ~100 camera rays traced per second to 4000 rays per second on a 4GHz 6 core CPU with a few tricks
> Because I've been learning a bit of serverless stuff I was curious as to how much faster I could run this using PowerShell in a webscale™ setup by distributing the processing over as many concurrently running lambdas as I could get in my AWS account:
> By using Lambda with large memory sizes to get more cores I had >250,000 camera rays per second (~62x my laptop speed) but I managed to rack up a $200 bill over a couple of bad runs

Pixel Art for PowerShell
Might want to look at my ray tracer then :) https://github.com/ShaunLawrie/PwshRayTracer It's not as readable because it was so slow in pwsh that I offloaded the compute to AWS so I could render the 500 samples per pixel gif for the "Ray Tracing in One Weekend" scene that has depth of field and antialiasing. There are some steps at the start of the readme for running it locally without AWS, it's slow but it still renders.
