what is this

shout.sh is a tiny HTTP service that renders stylized ANSI banners over curl. Everything lives in the URL path — no flags, no config, no client to install.

curl shout.sh/HELLO prints a banner. curl shout.sh/rainbow/HELLO prints an animated one. The web playground at shout.sh renders the same output locally via a WebAssembly build of the pipeline, so you can dial in the URL before pasting it into a terminal.

built on cfonts

The letterforms come from cfonts by Dominik Wilkowski — an awesome little library.

Because cfonts is GPL-3, shout.sh is too.
