Combining D2 with a Bash script helped automate the process and produce ready‑to‑use OG images. The workflow uses CLI image tools (pngquant, cwebp, ImageMagick) and I talk about the benefits of text‑based templates, offline generation, and automation.

Haven't seen this again since it came out. And I enjoyed this a lot now! That dream-within-a-dream concept is so good, and Nolan can just go crazy with the action. And it's still one of his movies you can more easily follow. Technically it's flawless IMO. And that ending is so perfect!
