TerminalImageViewer
- Attracting attention to terminalimageviwer, a c++ program that renders an image with block chars and optionally teletype chars! Unfortunately hasn't had any real commits since July 2021

A year of building for the terminal
As an example someone did some work to view images inside a terminal window: https://github.com/stefanhaustein/TerminalImageViewer

ANSIArt
Another C++ Library to convert images to unicode is TerminalImageViewer(tiv): https://github.com/stefanhaustein/TerminalImageViewer
The algorithm is described at the top of the README, examples are at the end.

what terminal emulator would you recommend?
Like some people here and under this post said, I like Kitty and would recommend it to anyone who uses/used Alacritty, as they are very similar in surface. I actually switch between Alacritty and Kitty pretty often, depending on my "mood". I recently went back to Kitty for image support (through chafa though, for better compatibility across terminal emulators). However, Wayland support is poor and I have some issues with fonts being too bold, although it could just be my config...

UPDATE: image.nvim - Color Support
There's also https://github.com/princejoogie/chafa.nvim, which wraps https://github.com/hpjansson/chafa Did you know about that? I wonder what the differences between your plugin and that one are?

Terminal Image and PDF Not Rendered Right/Blocky
I guess it is using https://github.com/hpjansson/chafa for that, and it needs to be using https://github.com/seebye/ueberzug/tree/2c55173878906c3b221cdef16cf083f0c412bb58
- Does someone have an idea how one could create such an effect?
