Built With Care
“Export uses html-to-image's toPng on the live DOM node at a 2x pixel ratio, so the text stays sharp on high-DPI screens. Syntax coloring is applied by a lightweight rule-based tokenizer whose keyword set is JavaScript-focused, with strings, numbers, and comments highlighted across the supported themes.”
Code to Image
Turn a code snippet into a shareable image with gradient backgrounds, syntax highlighting, and a macOS-style window chrome. Pick a theme, adjust padding and zoom, and export a 2x-resolution PNG for blog posts, slides, and social media.
- 1Click the preview and type or paste your source code into the invisible editor area.
- 2Pick one of the seven gradient themes that fits your content or brand.
- 3Select the language from the list so the highlighting rules match the syntax.
- 4Adjust padding, background opacity, and window zoom to frame the snippet.
- 5Change the window title to match the file you are showing.
- 6Click Export Image to download a 2x-resolution PNG of the snippet.
- 7Adjust padding from 16 to 96px and background opacity from 50 to 100% to control how much of the gradient frame stays visible.
- 8Use the zoom slider (80 to 150%) to inspect tight snippets at a readable size before exporting.
- Seven Gradient Themes: Ocean, sunset, purple, matrix, dark, fire, and midnight backgrounds.
- Nine Language Labels: JavaScript, TypeScript, Python, CSS, HTML, Java, Go, JSON, and SQL.
- Syntax Highlighting: A local tokenizer colors keywords, strings, numbers, and comments.
- macOS Window Chrome: Traffic-light dots and a custom title bar in every exported image.
- Retina-Ready Export: toPng renders the node at a 2x pixel ratio for crisp text.
- In-Browser Rendering: The image is captured from the DOM, so your code is not uploaded.
- Adjustable Frame Controls: Padding, background opacity, and display zoom sliders (16-96px, 50-100%, 80-150%) fine-tune the composition.

Tutorial Screenshots
Illustrate a step-by-step guide with a highlighted snippet that matches the theme of the surrounding article.
- The tokenizer is rule-based rather than a full parser, so unusual or language-specific syntax may not highlight perfectly.
- Very long snippets become unreadable at social media sizes; crop to one focused concept.
- Redact secrets, API keys, and internal URLs before exporting any code image for public use.
- 1Preview the image at the size you will post and confirm the text is readable.
- 2Verify the window title and theme match the project or brand.
- 3Double-check the snippet for credentials or internal paths before exporting.
