faces.js is a JavaScript library for generating and displaying vector-based (SVG) cartoon faces, similar in spirit to Nintendo Miis. Each face is represented by a small serializable JavaScript object, so faces can be stored and redrawn later, and it includes a React component and a web-based face editor.

Use cases

• generate random cartoon avatars in the browser
• create Mii-like character faces for a game
• store and redraw the same avatar from a saved object
• let users design custom avatars with a face editor
• render avatar SVGs in a React app
• generate consistent family-like faces for NPCs

When to choose

• you need lightweight, vector-based cartoon avatars in a web app or game
• you want avatars serializable as small JSON objects
• you want a React-friendly avatar component with random generation and overrides

When to avoid

• you need photorealistic or raster image avatars
• you need server-side or non-JavaScript avatar generation
• you need detailed 3D character models
