You can also do an animated svg which is way smaller than a gif because it's just text keyframes (https://github.com/vytskalt/pseudoc/blob/main/assets/factori...)


Very cool, never thought of that! "way smaller" is almost an understatement, when it's 50kb :P Neat that it loads in GitHub READMEs as well, which is probably a large reason people use .gif today.


How can you do it? I don't see an SVG output from ascii-gif.


I used a different project, https://github.com/marionebl/svg-term-cli


it might be this: https://github.com/mrmarble/termsvg
