bing-wallpaper VS go-unsplash

As mentioned by others, the daily wallpapers supplied by bing are very nice. They aren’t 4k, but the 1080p images still look good on my 4k monitors.

There are a number of scripts out there which download the ‘picture of the day’ and store it locally. You can then set your computer to scroll through these images every so often. Here’s the one I use: https://github.com/thejandroman/bing-wallpaper

Since I wanted to have thumbnails for each post (the file it uses is defined by the thumbnail field in the front matter), I decided to add some code that copies the files from our posts folder to the assets folder in Angular. This way, we can easily reference them in our Angular code. However, some of the image files I would download from Unsplash.com (fantastic public domain images btw) were huge and would take a few seconds to load in the browser. So, I delegated this task to gulp, where the files would first be piped to imagemin and then copied to the assets folder. This optimized the images for faster load times. My gulpfile.mjs looks like this:
