A Swift console application for macOS that creates dynamic wallpapers (.heic) introduced in macOS Mojave, from a JSON description and image files. It also includes wallpapper-exif for extracting metadata from existing dynamic wallpaper files.

Use cases

  • create a dynamic wallpaper for macOS Mojave from my own images
  • build a time-based or solar-based heic wallpaper file
  • extract metadata from an existing macOS dynamic wallpaper heic
  • make a custom dynamic wallpaper that changes with light or time of day
  • convert a set of images into a macOS dynamic wallpaper

When to choose

  • you want to create custom dynamic wallpapers for macOS Mojave or newer
  • you need a lightweight command-line tool scriptable in CI or shell
  • you want to inspect or extract metadata from existing .heic dynamic wallpapers

When to avoid

  • you are not on macOS, since dynamic wallpapers are a macOS feature
  • you need a GUI tool for wallpaper creation
  • you want to set or manage wallpapers rather than generate .heic files
