ascii.rest provides ASCII animations and examples for embedding them in web pages. Users can add a custom tag without a separate build or integrate it with React, Next.js or Astro. Only visible elements animate. The linked public repository presents 191 works, including scenes, charts and logos. When a reduced-motion preference is detected, the default behavior is to show only the first frame. Accessibility labels are supported too, allowing decorative effects to preserve user preferences.
