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.

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:#ff3b30or#000,#ff3b30,#ffe600.--style— one of:gradient— smooth linear blend across the color listmesh— soft gaussian color blobs layered (perlin-ish)noise— solid base + per-pixel additive grainascii-stripes— gradient bg + horizontal ASCII glyph stripes at low alphascanlines— gradient bg + thin black horizontal lines every N rows
--size—WxH, default5120x2880(5K, fits 16:9 retina displays)--centerpiece—none(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.
