Grow a tree. Leave it in the forest. Name2Tree is a generative art app that turns text into deterministic tree drawings. It began as the ITP Spring Show 2025 project Find Trees in Names: What if We are Trees?, where visitors typed a name, watched a tree grow, added it to a shared forest, downloaded it through a QR flow, and printed it as a physical keepsake. You are welcome here. Type your name or a short phrase on the live app, press Add to Forest , and your tree joins the community grove at the top of the forest — no GitHub pull request, just a moment between you and the algorithm. The same words always grow the same tree. What will yours look like? Try it live → · Explore the forest → · Project story → What it does 1. Type — Enter a name, nickname, or any short text (validated for friendly content). 2. Grow — ASCII/Unicode digits drive a breadth-first tree; the same input always yields the same drawing. 3. Add — Community trees save to Supabase and appear first on /forest ; the installation archive from names.json follows below. 4. Keep — Download PNG or SVG, scan a QR code for a print-ready page, or open collective views on /viz . 5. Return — Your community trees show a small mark; hover the card to reveal delete (only yours). Degenerate digit runs become intentional flower-like roses. An APack stamp can sign the tree in a Chinese-character-like grid. Admin mode ( ?admin=true ) still supports curating the bundled archive.
