Turn Your Code Into Pixel Art

The plan is very simple: I’ll parse a Ruby file to collect all token types, assign each token a color, and then render each one as a pixel in a grid. Sounds like a plan, right?If you’re only interested in the script, here it goes. Just run ruby code_picture.rb your-file.rb, and you’ll get your abstract pixel art. I’ll be going over some of the most interesting parts of that code. Stick around, and you might learn something cool.
