Thanks for noticing the tech.

Thanks for noticing the tech. Its held up under the load pretty well considering that the files are all only stored in their original .zip format (rather than unzipped and stored staticly). That, and its hosted on a $5/month DigitalOcean instance. :-) The rendering engine indeed renders to canvas and was created by Andy Herbert ( https://github.com/ansilove/ansilove.js ). It was based on a popular PHP ANSI->PNG library called AnsiLove (written by Frederick Cambus: https://github.com/ansilove/ansilove ) If anyone wants to build anything on the API, please let me know (email in profile), and I'll try harder to keep it stable. :-) Search is coming soon. If anyone wants to help, the most needed item is RIPscrip rendering. We use ripscrip.js ( https://github.com/andyherbert/ripscript.js ) at the moment, but the rendering is broken on a lot of files.
