Nice! Feature suggestion: an (optional) colour picker would be a nice touch, so you can pick (or perhaps enter #RGB) one that should appear and the others are then a fitting palette. Occurred to me because I was refreshing through a few, liked the colours on one, but not so much the pattern. (Perhaps alternative implementation would be a 'hold colour palette' or 'hold pattern' toggles, so only the other varies.)



Thank you. Those are great suggestions, but I also like the simplicity of it being completely random. Perhaps I'll do an interactive wallpaper designer at some point, where you're more in control.


I do like the simplicity of completely random, but my first instinct was definitely to want some sliders or toggles. Personally prefer desktops to be extremely dark, and many of them were nice, but way too bright on a section. User control would definitely end up with a different experience, and totally respect the simplicity.

Might end up tweaking it to my tastes and a few other resolutions, like for my ultra wide.


What could be nice, and not require user input, is detect whether the user has dark mode enabled, and then use that as an input variable.


I've added GUI where you can also pick the color and play around with other params. Check it out in this branch: https://github.com/markomarkovic/wallpaper-generator/tree/gu...
