Show HN: Gribble – Pixelated pixel art editor in the browser

#1
Last year I started working on this pixel art tool to make pixelated frontend components, and as it evolved I used the tool to improve the tool, and so on. And now after some time it's a full editor with layers, frames and a public gallery running in the browser with pixelated components!

It currently has an Android app too, and the iOS app is under review.

Some of the cooler features to check out:

- Code export to make pixelated components in CSS or JavaScript canvas

- A gallery where you can "fork" other people's art to build on top of it

- 9-patch mode to make dynamically sized, animated frontend "border frames"

- Offset mode for mobile use where the brush is dragged around and not under your fingers

- A little bit of free cloud storage for cross-platform art moving

- Import images or GIFs to pixelate them, and modify frame-by-frame before export

It's a small web app with a couple of users, and is meant as a low friction straight-into-it way of making pixel art with as little fluff as possible. It has a lot of themes to make the pixel art components pop, most necessary tools and a plethora of import and export types.

Happy to answer any questions or listen to any feedback on how it can be improved.
