Type text and pick a font style to render it as an ASCII art banner.

ASCII art uses printable characters to form text banners and pictures. The classic FIGlet tool (1991) renders text in oversized "fonts" made of ASCII characters — popular for terminal banners, README headers, MOTD greetings, and source code dividers.
Add a banner to your CLI tool's startup output, decorate the top of a README, embed in source code as a header, sign emails or text-mode signatures, and use as decorative section dividers in markdown documents.
The generator uses FIGlet fonts — dozens of styles from blocky "Standard" and "Big" to slim "Slant" and decorative options, all rendered client-side.
Yes — copy the output directly into a README.md code block or print it from your CLI tool's startup script; it renders correctly anywhere monospace text is displayed.
Long input can produce wide banners that wrap awkwardly in narrow terminals — keep banner text short (a name, a short phrase) for the cleanest result.
