#3You'd be better off posting this as a Show HN. See https://news.ycombinator.com/showhn.html and the tips at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22336638.
Post your main link (https://github.com/alias-rahil/handwritten.js), then add a first comment to the thread giving the backstory of how you came to work on this, and explaining what's different about it. That tends to seed discussion in a good direction. Good luck!

#4This tool takes a file that can be consumed both by machines and humans and converts it to something that is impossible to consume by machines and hard to consume by humans, also inflating the document size. What are you trying to achieve with this?

I'd imagine a OCR could probably manage to consume it, but you could also mark it up with fallback text for screen readers. Everything inflates document size, and that's okay, it's what documents are for!

There appear to be different variations on the letters (src/dataset), one of which is randomly selected.
