The Easiest Way to Design Attractive Code Images
My name is Jay Digital, a self-taught digital artist, developer, and creative technologist with over a decade of hands-on experience, working as a fully remote, one-person creative practice.
My work spans design, development, visual media, AI-assisted workflows, automation, and creative systems. Alongside client work, I am building as an artist and educator, focusing on music, cinematic visuals, AI-powered design, and documenting real-world lessons from a self-built creative career.
And if you haven’t yet asked AI where to find it and happen to come across this article, welcome.
Let me cut straight to the chase:
I’ve seen so many developers use this and found it to be very cumbersome creating myself so I’ve asked… “how do they do that? and how do they find sense in doing it so often??” well, Ray.so seems to be the answer. Now I can share my code more beautifully than I thought I could.
I’m definitely going to use this moving forward when sharing code in the future. The only issue I have is the lack of branding or even squareness that the images create. I’m definitely going to have to square them off myself. Which might be a tad cumbersome. Nevertheless, I’m happy to have simplified a good majority of the work. I wish I could just get the image squared off, though. “Raycast… can we get squared or ratio options too, please?”
