Show HN: Capture website screenshots from your terminal. No browser needed
I built a CLI tool for capturing website screenshots directly from your terminal. It displays images inline using Sixel, iTerm2, or Kitty protocols, so you can preview sites without leaving your workflow.
Built in Rust, it's open source, you can find the code here: https://github.com/allscreenshots/allscreenshots-cli https://github.com/allscreenshots/allscreenshots-cli

- erikpau 9mo agoThat's absolutely a side effect indeed, though the level of interaction with the website is quite limited. But glad you find it useful!
- nanoparticle 9mo agoCool! didn't know you can render images inline in the terminal
- erikpau 9mo agoYes, that's why we built it. iTerm has https://iterm2.com/documentation-images.html https://iterm2.com/documentation-images.html, and Kitty has the Terminal Graphics Protocol. This is also a good library which show the image display in action https://github.com/atanunq/viu https://github.com/atanunq/viu
