CLUSTER HALFTONE-IMAGES-DITHERING · 10 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2026-10-04

Dithering and halftone art tools

This cluster covers tools that convert images into stylized dithering and halftone versions, including web apps and a Photoshop plugin. The dated history is too thin to read a shape from, with only one entry before the index start. Traction leadership is led by ascii-dungeon-releases with 2 stars, though others have 0.

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.

Two labels per entry, never collapsed into one: how it was built, and who stands behind it. Counted over the 10 listed below. Unlabelled means nothing has decided yet — not that the answer is small.
