parrot.live is a small web service that streams an animated ASCII party parrot to any terminal via `curl parrot.live`. It serves animation frames from the terminal-parrot project over HTTP for pure terminal fun.

Use cases

  • display an animated parrot in my terminal
  • fun thing to curl from the command line
  • add party parrot animation to a shell demo
  • entertain teammates with a terminal easter egg
  • show ascii animation over curl

When to choose

  • you want a zero-install terminal animation that works anywhere curl exists
  • you need a fun demo or easter egg for presentations or shell configs

When to avoid

  • you need a serious terminal tool or productivity utility
  • you are offline or curl is unavailable
  • you want customizable animations rather than the party parrot
