Pasteup

A cozy digital cutting mat, in the browser.

Pasteup is a browser-based cutting mat for making collages, scrapbook pages, and dedications. There is no account and no backend — everything runs client-side, and your project autosaves to the browser via IndexedDB, so a refresh never loses work.

You add images — upload them, paste from the clipboard, or search Wikimedia Commons and Openverse — then cut them out with a freehand or rectangular snip, arrange them across multiple pages, and export a page as a PNG.

It is built with React, TypeScript, and Vite, using Konva for the canvas and Zustand for state. The image sources are pluggable, so new connectors can drop straight into the sidebar.
