Trianglify
Trianglify is an algorithmic background generator and vector art toolkit used to produce pseudo-random geometric patterns and polygonal meshes. It functions as a rendering engine that converts geometric data into either scalable vector graphics or rasterized canvas elements.
The system utilizes deterministic pattern generation via seed values to ensure consistent geometric output. It supports customizable color gradients, coordinate grid jittering, and custom geometry definitions to control the placement and shape of the generated meshes.
The project covers algorithmic art generation and generative graphic design, with capabilities for rendering to HTML5 Canvas and SVG. Final outputs can be exported as SVG or PNG files.
