This is a script to generate lowpoly of a image. Two version are available, local python script and a web version. Python version has a option to use entropy method which is slow to calculate on the browser.

- Clone the repo
git clone https://github.com/kapilpokhrel/Lowpoly.git cd Lowpoly - Install dependencies
pip install -r requirements.txt - Run the Script
For command line options, run
python lowpoly.py dogimage.jpgpython lowpoly.py --help
Because, one day I saw a Desmos art which made cool image by using polygons and I wanted to generate a lowpoly image made up of polygons in a desmos graph and it was quite a challenge. Later, I realized that have it generate only in desmos was kinda weird and changed it to generate a image. But still, there's a brach named desmos with old code.
I know its tedious to clone the repo and install all dependencies. But here are some reasons I chose python:
I did write it in Javascript to check but calculating entropy of a image was way too slow and I couldn't find any faster way to do it in JS.It's easy with everything already done for you by python packages.:grin:
While all this is still true, there's now a web version but only sobel filter method is implemented.
