mosaic

Photo-mosaic web and cli application. Made as a part 3 of the Go Challange.

A photographic mosaic, or a photo-mosaic is a picture (usually a photograph) that has been divided into (usually equal sized) rectangular sections, each of which is replaced with another picture (called a tile picture). If we view it from far away or if you squint at it, then the original picture can be seen. If we look closer though, we will see that the picture is in fact made up of many hundreds or thousands of smaller tile pictures.
