Overview
What it is
NFTMixer (.NET) is the original generative-NFT builder: a C# / .NET 6 Blazor Server application, structured as a multi-project Dockerized solution. Layered art flows through sources → assets → variants → a node graph, then generates PNGs plus metadata.
Why it matters here
This is the predecessor to nftmixer-go. It defined the product and the
domain model, and it served as the read-only reference implementation the Go +
Next.js rewrite was measured against for functional parity.
Highlights (and honest limits)
The original proved the concept but carried real defects that the rewrite was explicitly designed to not reproduce — spoofable wallet "authentication", unauthorized download endpoints, a committed API key, and non-expiring sessions. Keeping it in the constellation is deliberate: the interesting engineering story is the delta between the two, not either one alone.
