A privacy-first Meme Generator built with React 19 and Local AI (ONNX). No watermarks, no sign-ups, no server uploads.
I built Meme Creator as a "Software for One" project because I got tired of uploading my son's personal photos to ad-filled servers just to add text. Existing tools were either expensive or slapped giant watermarks on the export.
Key Features:
Local AI Background Removal: Uses onnxruntime-web (WebAssembly) to remove backgrounds entirely in the browser.
Privacy-First: 100% Client-side. Your images never leave your device.
React 19 Architecture: Built using the latest React 19 hooks and Server Actions pattern (adapted for client-only).
Source Available: Licensed under AGPLv3. You can verify the security in the repo.
Why I built it: Most free tools are data-harvesting operations. This is a clean, open-source alternative for people who just want to make a meme and move on.
Tech Stack:
React 19 + Vite
TypeScript
Tailwind CSS
ONNX Runtime Web (modnet quantized)
