I was just thinking something like this, glad to stumbled here. Sending to our developer @yulafezmem and we will implement this in our projects, it is soo boring to serve empty avatar spaces, and wait for people to upload. Website is nicely executed, when you hover to the gradients, "COPY SVG" reveals at the bottom and you can click and copy the SVG code. OK, but I think we can do this by clicking right on to the gradient circles, without moving the cursor to the bottom each time, and also simple feedback would be nice on top of it "copied". Notable Women is also a nice touch. These things always add value, no matter where they used.

@yulafezmem @boraoztunc Thank you Bora for all your feedback ✨. Our intended approach, as you mentioned, was to change the way we use the user avatar placeholders in those projects were we don't want to fall into the boring-letter-based avatars libraries 👍

This is so cool! I've been looking for funny avatar generator like this since Adorable API already discontinued

@sozonome Thank you! We have no cartoon faces in the library, but the Beam variant might do the work 👍

This is brilliantly executed. I love the fact that it's themeable

Love the Beam variable, great work! I will definitely use it on Figma for placeholder avatars. (Maybe a Figma plugin is a possible next step, @josep_martins? :P)
Josep Martins
@davtun Thank you David. We have the Figma plugin in mind too
