## What it is
Tiler is a Python tool that builds a large image out of many smaller tile images (circles, legos, minecraft blocks, cross stitches, etc.). Unlike typical mosaic tools, it supports tiles of arbitrary shapes and sizes.

## Use cases
- create a photomosaic from a folder of tile images
- make an image look like it's built from lego bricks
- generate minecraft block art from a photo
- turn an image into a cross-stitch pattern
- build mosaics with non-square tile shapes like circles or waves

## When to choose
- you want creative mosaic effects with custom tile shapes
- you prefer a simple script-based Python tool you can configure via conf.py

## When to avoid
- you need a GUI or web interface
- you need real-time or batch production-grade image processing

## Facets
- artifact type: cli-tool
- maturity: maintenance
- function: image-processing, cli
- domain: image-processing, graphics
- platform: python, cross-platform, cli
