I built AppIconKitchen (https://www.appiconkitchen.com) - a free AI-powered app icon generator.
Background: I'm an indie dev and needed an app icon for my side project. Looked around at existing tools: - Most charge $10+ per icon - Require creating an account just to try - Don't export proper Xcode/Android Studio ready assets
So I spent a weekend building my own solution.
What it does: - AI generates icons in 4 styles (clay/flat/mac/pixel) - One click exports complete iOS AppIcon.appiconset with Contents.json - One click exports Android mipmap folders with adaptive icon layers - Includes Web/PWA icons in the same export - Free, no signup, no limits
Tech: Next.js 15, TypeScript, Replicate's Flux model, Cloudflare R2 storage.
Honestly built it for myself but thought others might find it useful. Would love feedback from the HN community - especially if something's broken or could be improved.

If anyone has feature requests or wants to know how it works under the hood, happy to share more details.
