Programmatic logo generation
The idea
Section titled “The idea”Instead of relying on AI image generation (which introduces randomness), the CW graph letterform logo could be generated programmatically. The logo IS a graph — nodes at computed positions, edges as lines. Code gives pixel-perfect control.
Possible approaches
Section titled “Possible approaches”- SVG math — compute node positions along a C-curve and W-zigzag, output SVG directly. Simplest, most portable.
- D3.js — force-directed or manually positioned graph, export as SVG
- Three.js / WebGL — for 3D/isometric variations, export as PNG or render live on the docs site
- p5.js / Canvas — quick prototyping of variations
- Figma plugin — generate variations inside Figma for final cleanup
Why this is interesting
Section titled “Why this is interesting”- Every variation in LOGO_PROMPTS.md (proportion, weight, alignment, connection style, color) becomes a parameter
- Could generate a grid of 100 variations instantly by sweeping parameters
- The logo could be a live interactive element on the docs homepage (WebGL)
- SVG output means true vector at any size — no AI upscaling needed
- Version-controllable — the logo IS code
When to explore
Section titled “When to explore”Low priority — AI generation with the sketch-to-digital prompts is faster for now. Revisit if:
- AI outputs aren’t precise enough
- We want an animated/interactive logo on the site
- We need hundreds of size/color/weight variations for a brand kit
