MATRIX-BOOT-ME

💻 A futuristic boot sequence generator written in Python — perfect for intros, resumes, or terminal-style animations.

✨ Overview

MATRIX-BOOT-ME is a lightweight Python script that generates a terminal-inspired animated GIF, simulating a neural system startup and shutdown.
It features personalized identity, tech stack, and contact information — all typed out character by character in a retro-futuristic terminal aesthetic.

⚙️ Customization

You can easily configure the following in main.py:

🔹 Boot / Shutdown Messages

Modify the BOOT_LINES, CONTINUE_LINES, DISENGAGE_LINE, and SHUTDOWN_LINES constants to customize the startup and shutdown sequences.

🔹 Personal Information

Edit the MAIN_INFO constant to include your name, title, links, contact details, or anything else you’d like to type out character by character.

🔹 Encryption / Scrambling Animation

Customize the animation blocks by changing:

• ENCRYPT_BASE, SCRAMBLE_BASE (messages shown)
• Block count in render_block_animation() calls

🔹 Typing & Animation Speeds

Control the animation pacing using constants:

• TYPING_SPEED
• ENCRYPT_SPEED
• SCRAMBLE_SPEED
• SHUTDOWN_SPEED
• FINAL_HOLD_DURATION

💡 Smaller speed values result in faster animation.

🔹 Visual Style

Modify visual output using:

• FONT_COLOR, BG_COLOR, FONT_SIZE, FONT_FAMILY
• Output size: IMAGE_WIDTH, IMAGE_HEIGHT
• Max visible lines: MAX_VISIBLE_LINES
• Typing cursor character (inside render_typing_animation)

🔹 GIF Output & Frame Handling

Set the output path using GIF_PATH.
Temporary frame images are cleaned up automatically — comment out the shutil.rmtree() line to keep them.
