Generate image in pure JS without canvas

BMP dataURI

You can generate BMP (bitmap) dataURI using below function. RAW BMP with 24-bit - 16x16 RGB is transformed to 2397 bytes dataURI (the image width should be divisable by 4).

/**

 * @param pixels - 1D array of RGB pixels (pixel = 3 numbers in
 *                 range 0-255; staring from left bottom corner)
 * @return dataURI string
 */

  let wh= LE(width).slice(0,4) + LE(pixels.length/width/3).slice(0,4);
  let size= LE(26+pixels.length);

  let head=`424d${size}000000001a0000000C000000${wh}01001800`;
