About this tool
Identicons turn a string into a recognizable geometric avatar. This one hashes the seed with SHA-256 and paints a 5×5 mirrored grid on canvas so fixtures do not depend on a third-party avatar CDN.
Bulk
One seed at a time. A bulk pack is not in this version.
Privacy
If the seed is an email, it still never leaves the tab — but anyone with the PNG cannot reverse SHA-256.
