DD Photos – open-source photo album site generator (Go and SvelteKit)
Static photo gallery generator when Immich and PhotoPrism already handle this server-side.
📸 → 🍌 → 🖼️ ... Re-imagine any photo into fantastical art. imagemine uses Claude to write a surrealist story about your photo, then generates a new image from that description using Gemini / Nano Banana.
Apple TV screensavers get a surrealist upgrade via Claude stories and Gemini image generation.

Try it by running `uvx imagemine path/to/photo.jpg`
At its heart, imagemine is a simple “ask claude for a short surrealist story based on the input photo” then “have nano banana generate a new image from the story and source image” script.
imagemine has 35+ built-in style prompts included that get selected at random or you can add your own (one-off cli flag or added to store).
Sure it might be slop, but it's your slop, curated with your magnificent taste.
The kicker is that you can configure an input and output Photos album (if you’re on a Mac) so that my old favorites album is source material and my TV is now set to the new album.
imagemine includes optional launchd (Mac’s cron, to oversimplify) so this whole thing can be run automatically on a schedule. Set it, forget it, give Anthropic and Google your money on autopilot.
If you use it, I’d love to hear feedback!
Static photo gallery generator when Immich and PhotoPrism already handle this server-side.
Static photo gallery with Docker mode removes Go and Node dependency hell.
Folder-native manifests plus a global SQLite index let you keep originals untouched while getting album features and very fast queries — smart trade-offs for large local libraries. Live Photo pairing/playback, a map view, and GPU-accelerated browsing show real engineering focus; it's not reinventing the genre (digiKam/Lightroom exist), but this is a tidy Photos-to-Windows port with thoughtful implementation details.
Hand-designed templates beat AI layouts, but Canva already owns this space.
E2EE albums and Rust backend are nice, but Immich dominates this crowded space.
It turns illustrations, sketches and AI art into photo-like images in seconds and even bundles usage with a credit system and a commercial license — useful for people who need fast mockups or product shots. The downside: this lives in a crowded space with established img2img and restoration tools, and the site gives little transparency about which models are used, privacy or quality guarantees (5MB limit, credits), so it’s hard to tell if it actually beats the alternatives.
