EZ Avatar
An API used to generate placeholder avatars for your website or app. It's built with Next.js and utilizes TailwindCSS for styling of the avatars including font color, background color, and more.

This was a simple project that I built to learn more about how to generate avatars using next/og. I've always found it frustrating when I'm building a new project and I need a placeholder avatar for a user, but I don't want to spend the time to create one. So I decided to build this simple API that would generate a random avatar for me.
Structure
This project is built with Next.js, like the rest of my projects. I used the next/og library to generate the avatars programmatically and using Next's App Router, I am able to generate the avatars on-demand when the user requests them via a POST Request with the parameters of their choice. You can visit the live site to see the different parameters that you can use to generate the avatar here
