Tell us about yourself

I just completed a bachelor's degree in computer science and will be studying further this year (2026).

I started Img2Num to solve a problem my mom always faced: she flies through color-by-number apps because they have a limited number of templates. Inside contrast, Img2Num allows users to upload their own images and convert them into color-by-number templates (SVGs) and color them in directly in their browser. The app currently does not have a backend because the C++ is compiled to WebAssembly and imported into React.

Since this vectorization pipeline is reusable and I can see it being useful for others, I'm in the process of converting the project into a cross-language library so people can use it everywhere.

Additional Information

Img2Num is a promising open source project that proposes a new way to vectorize images with minimal flaws. It is not as lossy as many other vectorization libraries out there.
