What does this tool do?

ASCII art is great for code comments, README headers, terminal splash screens and chat messages. Text is drawn in the font you choose and converted to characters, so any language or symbol works. View it in a monospaced font for the right proportions.

Everything runs in your browser — nothing you paste is uploaded.
