I saw this post a few days ago on HN [1] about the new Nano Banana model and decided to play with it. It's incredible (Mostly for editing IMHO)! The thing is, Google AI Studio is great for chat... for images, the UI is not ideal.

So I decided to make my own thing: an infinite canvas for AI image exploration. :)

Right now it only supports Nano Banana, but the plan is to include OpenAI, Replicate, and fal.ai this week!

Would love to hear any feedback. Feel free to propose changes as well!

Nice going. Recraft.AI [1] (who makes one of the few SVG focused GenAI models) also has an infinite canvas for image generation / editing, so it's great to see an open source equivalent.
