WEasyPrint's Github:
> From a technical point of view, WeasyPrint is a visual rendering engine for HTML and CSS that can export to PDF. It aims to support web standards for printing. WeasyPrint is free software made available under a BSD license.
> It is based on various libraries but not on a full rendering engine like WebKit or Gecko. The CSS layout engine is written in Python, designed for pagination, and meant to be easy to hack on.
- genewitch 1y agoCool, not who you replied to but this is a cool idea, another way to archive pages. Gotta compare it to singlefile and headless chrome - I've been looking for a faster way to get a snapshot of a webpage via a chatbot (like in discord or matrix). Used to use Firefox headless, but large pages/slower sites would time out the api.
