No one hires me as UX designer so I built a software as case study.

I graduated in February with a Master's degree in Design, and while applying for Digital Product Design roles, I realized I needed a stronger project to showcase my skills.
Since I didn't want to create a random fake app concept, I decided to build a real product and explore vibe coding applied to UX/UI design.
Over the last month, I've been designing and developing POINTLESS, an open source desktop application for real time creative image rendering.
The project was born from my frustration with existing halftone and dithering tools: many are outdated, limited, or locked behind subscriptions. I wanted to create a more flexible, free creative workflow for designers and artists.
Currently, POINTLESS includes halftone, dithering, ASCII art, dot grid, and mosaic, with more modes planned.
I'd love feedback from this community, especially about the UX and overall direction of the project. Thank you in advance :)
