PixelForge Prompt Studio

Local-first prompt studio for consistent pixel-art production.

Version 1.0.0 · German / English · browser-local data · MIT

Create reusable production profiles, follow a category-aware wizard, and export main prompts, negative prompts, technical specifications or a combined Markdown document. Nine asset categories share consistent camera, scale, material, lighting and pixel-style rules. This app creates prompts, not images.

What you can do

• Keep production values consistent with reusable base/category/asset profiles and locks.
• Ask only relevant questions for characters, objects, textures, nature, buildings, tilesets, equipment and free artwork.
• Work in German or English with keyboard-friendly dark/light/system themes.
• Export readable Markdown prompts and validated JSON workspace backups.
• Self-host a small static app with Docker Compose; no server database to maintain.

Quick start

Use the Node.js version in .node-version and its bundled npm:

npm ci
npm run dev

Open http://127.0.0.1:4173. If vite is missing, run npm ci first with development dependencies enabled. npm start also opens the browser.

Docker Compose

docker compose up --build -d --wait

Open http://127.0.0.1:8080. The non-root production container binds to loopback by default. See self-hosting for server ports, HTTPS, static hosting without Docker, updates and rollback.

Your data

Profiles, settings and drafts stay in your browser's localStorage. There is no backend, telemetry, API key or cloud account. Export your workspace as JSON from Settings for backup or transfer. Server backups do not contain browser data; changing host, port or HTTP/HTTPS creates a different storage origin. Existing schema-V2 data and migration contracts remain compatible; product version 1.0.0 is independent of schema version 2.

Settings offers Deutsch and English; Output can choose its own prompt language. Custom text is preserved, not automatically translated. Only the Prompt Studio is included; there is no animation-project workspace, renderer or engine exporter.

Development and documentation

npm run verify
npm run test:browser:install
npm run test:browser

verify checks documentation, TypeScript, tests and the production build. npm test starts watch-mode tests. npm run build produces dist/; npm run preview is for local review, not production hosting.
