Code Screenshot Generator

Paste code and turn it into a polished, shareable image — syntax highlighting, themes, window chrome and gradient backgrounds. Export PNG or SVG.

This code screenshot tool turns a snippet into a polished, shareable image with syntax highlighting and a styled frame.

Pick a theme, background and window chrome, then export a PNG or SVG or copy the image straight to your clipboard. It runs in your browser.

How it works

  1. 1

    Paste your code

    Drop in a snippet and pick its language for accurate syntax highlighting.

    Style the frame

    Choose a color theme, background gradient, padding, window chrome and an optional title bar.

  3. 3

    Export

    Download a crisp PNG (1×–3×) or an SVG, or copy the image straight to your clipboard for a quick paste.

Instant & 100% private — nothing is uploaded

Everything runs locally in your browser. Your code, text and files are processed on your own device and are never sent to a server — so there are no upload waits, no size limits from us, and nothing is ever stored or logged.

Frequently asked questions

What is a code screenshot used for?
Sharing readable, good-looking code in blog posts, documentation, slide decks, READMEs and social posts — where a plain text paste or a raw OS screenshot looks messy.
Which languages are highlighted?
Common languages including JavaScript, TypeScript, JSON, HTML, CSS, Python, Go, Rust, Java, SQL, Bash, YAML and Markdown, with sensible fallbacks for anything else.
Can I export a high-resolution image?
Yes. Export at 1×, 2× or 3× for sharp results on retina screens and in print, or save an SVG for infinite scaling. Copy-to-clipboard is also available for fast pasting.
