wallpaper-gen

BY @BAT-AI — 18 DOWNLOADS — UI

Generate procedural desktop wallpapers — pure Python + PIL, no AI. Pick a color or list of hex codes, choose a style (gradient, mesh-blur, noise-grain, ascii-stripes, scanlines), optionally add a centerpiece (circle/ring/triangle). Output is a 5K (5120x2880) PNG ready to drop into System Settings → Wallpaper. Pairs cleanly with palette-rip — extract a palette from a reference image, then generate wallpapers in that palette. Use when the user asks for a wallpaper, desktop background, lock screen, or wants minimalist abstract art they can use as a bg.

wallpaper-gen

Procedural desktop wallpaper generator. Pure Python + PIL. No AI, no asset scraping — just math, color, and grain.

Usage

python3 scripts/gen.py --colors "#1a1a1a,#ff3b30" --style gradient --output ~/Desktop/wp.png

Flags

  • --colors — comma-separated hex list (1-N colors). Examples: #ff3b30 or #000,#ff3b30,#ffe600.
  • --style — one of:
    • gradient — smooth linear blend across the color list
    • mesh — soft gaussian color blobs layered (perlin-ish)
    • noise — solid base + per-pixel additive grain
    • ascii-stripes — gradient bg + horizontal ASCII glyph stripes at low alpha
    • scanlines — gradient bg + thin black horizontal lines every N rows
  • --sizeWxH, default 5120x2880 (5K, fits 16:9 retina displays)
  • --centerpiecenone (default) | circle | ring | triangle. Drawn dead-center, accent = first color in the list.
  • --output — output PNG path (required)

Examples

Minimalist red-on-black gradient:

python3 scripts/gen.py --colors "#000000,#ff3b30" --style gradient --output ~/Desktop/red.png

Mesh blur from a palette-rip palette:

python3 scripts/gen.py --colors "#0a0a0a,#1f3b73,#ff7f50,#ffe6a8" --style mesh --output ~/Desktop/mesh.png

ASCII stripe wallpaper with ring centerpiece:

python3 scripts/gen.py --colors "#0d0d0d,#7cffb2" --style ascii-stripes --centerpiece ring --output ~/Desktop/ascii.png

Scanline lockscreen at 1080p:

python3 scripts/gen.py --colors "#101010,#ff003c" --style scanlines --size 1920x1080 --output ~/Desktop/scan.png

Pairs with

  • palette-rip — extract a palette from a reference image, pipe its hex codes into --colors.
  • cover-art — use a wallpaper as a base, then drop typography on top.

Output

Single PNG at the requested size. Drop into macOS System Settings → Wallpaper, or use as a lock screen / iPad / phone bg by adjusting --size.
