Photoshop-like application made with React, that lets you use blending modes and adjustments to create computer graphics.
NOTE: This app needs serious refactoring and rewrite. It is an experiment that got out of hands and it serves as proof of concept rather than an usable app. It is by no means finished.
It uses CSS blend modes (the same blend modes - mostly - uses Photoshop) and filters to mix layers together. It takes random images from unsplash and sets them to OVERLAY blend mode by default.
You can change blend modes, hue, saturation, contrast, opacity and other properties of each image/layer. There are some tools implemented like zoom or rotate.
As quirky as it sounds - you cannot save/make a screenshot of a website/DOM that uses CSS blend modes (if its possible, please let me know). I've tried few options, but to no avail. If you want to save a piece, you have to make a manual screenshot.
Fortunately - the same blending behaviour can be achieved using canvas (which can be saved as an image), but it changes the whole app core logic, so it will take some time to implement.
Some of them may be weird, as they are random images from Unsplash and they tend to blend in a weird manner
Kick off your project with this default boilerplate. This starter ships with the main Gatsby configuration files you might need to get up and running blazing fast with the blazing fast app generator for React.

-
Create a Gatsby site.
Use the Gatsby CLI to create a new site, specifying the default starter.
# create a new Gatsby site using the default starter npx gatsby new my-default-starter https://github.com/gatsbyjs/gatsby-starter-default
-
Start developing.
Navigate into your new site’s directory and start it up.
cd my-default-starter/ gatsby develop
-
Open the source code and start editing!
Your site is now running at
https://localhost:8000
!Note: You'll also see a second link:
https://localhost:8000/___graphql
. This is a tool you can use to experiment with querying your data. Learn more about using this tool in the Gatsby tutorial.Open the
my-default-starter
directory in your code editor of choice and editsrc/pages/index.js
. Save your changes and the browser will update in real time!
A quick look at the top-level files and directories you'll see in a Gatsby project.

/node_modules
: This directory contains all of the modules of code that your project depends on (npm packages) are automatically installed. -
/src
: This directory will contain all of the code related to what you will see on the front-end of your site (what you see in the browser) such as your site header or a page template.src
is a convention for “source code”. -
.gitignore
: This file tells git which files it should not track / not maintain a version history for. -
.prettierrc
: This is a configuration file for Prettier. Prettier is a tool to help keep the formatting of your code consistent. -
gatsby-browser.js
: This file is where Gatsby expects to find any usage of the Gatsby browser APIs (if any). These allow customization/extension of default Gatsby settings affecting the browser. -
gatsby-globalConfig.js
: This is the main configuration file for a Gatsby site. This is where you can specify information about your site (metadata) like the site title and description, which Gatsby plugins you’d like to include, etc. (Check out the config docs for more detail). -
gatsby-node.js
: This file is where Gatsby expects to find any usage of the Gatsby Node APIs (if any). These allow customization/extension of default Gatsby settings affecting pieces of the site build process. -
gatsby-ssr.js
: This file is where Gatsby expects to find any usage of the Gatsby server-side rendering APIs (if any). These allow customization of default Gatsby settings affecting server-side rendering. -
LICENSE
: Gatsby is licensed under the MIT license. -
package-lock.json
(Seepackage.json
below, first). This is an automatically generated file based on the exact versions of your npm dependencies that were installed for your project. (You won’t change this file directly). -
package.json
: A manifest file for Node.js projects, which includes things like metadata (the project’s name, author, etc). This manifest is how npm knows which packages to install for your project. -
README.md
: A text file containing useful reference information about your project.
Looking for more guidance? Full documentation for Gatsby lives on the website. Here are some places to start:
-
For most developers, we recommend starting with our in-depth tutorial for creating a site with Gatsby. It starts with zero assumptions about your level of ability and walks through every step of the process.
