How I built an AI Text-to-Art Generator

This article is a write-up on how I built Text2Art.com in a week. Text2Art is an AI-powered art generator based on VQGAN CLIP that can generate all kinds of art such as pixel art, drawing, and painting from just text input. The article follows my thought process from experimenting with VQGAN CLIP, building a simple UI with Gradio, switching to FastAPI to serve the models, and finally to using Firebase as a queue system.
