The official README describes DiceBear as an avatar library for designers and developers, while the current documentation presents it as a free open-source avatar library and avatar API with JavaScript, PHP, Python, Rust, Go, Dart, HTTP API, CLI, Playground, Figma plugin, and editor surfaces. ### Adoption history DiceBear's adoption comes from a practical web-development need: deterministic user avatars from a seed. The official site advertises more than 35 styles, privacy-focused and self-hostable generation, and a GitHub star count in the thousands. ### How it is used The Homebrew package exposes the DiceBear CLI, which official docs position for command-line and bulk avatar generation. Users can generate stable SVG profile pictures for identities by selecting a style and seed. ### Why package nerds care DiceBear is package-nerd interesting because an asset-generation service is also available as local tooling. That lets builds and scripts create avatar fixtures without calling a hosted API. ### Timeline - 2017: GitHub repository created. - 2026: v10.3.0 release published on GitHub. ### Related projects - The official navigation lists multiple language libraries, an HTTP API, a CLI, a Playground, and an editor around the same avatar-generation project. ### Sources - - - - - - ## Security Notes library-like package without higher-risk signals. - **Geiger risk:** green / low - library-like package without higher-risk signals ## Source Database Details - **Source Database:** Homebrew formula API - **Tap:** homebrew/core - **Full Name:** dicebear - **Version Scheme:** 0 - **Revision:** 0 - **Bottle Stable Root URL:** - **Deprecated:** no - **Disabled:** no - **Keg Only:** no - **URL Keys:** stable ## Related links - [Terminal utility packages](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/terminal-utilities/) - Matched terminal and command-line workflow metadata. - [Developer build packages](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/developer-build-tools/) - Matched build, compiler, generator, or developer workflow metadata. - [Networking and protocol packages](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/networking-protocol-tools/) - Matched network, protocol, or remote-service metadata. - [Media and graphics packages](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/media-graphics-tools/) - Matched media, image, audio, video, or graphics metadata. - [gettext](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/gettext/) - Runtime dependency declared by Homebrew. - [glib](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/glib/) - Runtime dependency declared by Homebrew. - [node](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/node/) - Runtime dependency declared by Homebrew. - [vips](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/vips/) - Runtime dependency declared by Homebrew. - [pkgconf](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/pkgconf/) - Build dependency declared by Homebrew. - [batik](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/batik/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, graphics, media, svg. - [libemf2svg](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/libemf2svg/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, graphics, media, svg. - [resvg](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/resvg/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, graphics, media, svg. - [svg2pdf](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/svg2pdf/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, graphics, media, svg. - [svgo](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/svgo/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, graphics, media, svg. - [aalib](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/aalib/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, graphics, media. - [efl](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/efl/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, graphics, media. - [epstool](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/epstool/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, graphics, media. - [iconsur](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/iconsur/) - Both packages touch the same language runtime or ecosystem.
