- joshmarinacci 12y agoHey! Flying Saucer! I wrote the first version of that almost a decade ago. I'm so happy to see people are still using it.
- virtualwhys 12y agoUse it on the JVM here, quite the god send, thanks for bringing it into being ;-) We provide PDF reports generated from various stat pages on our site for NHL and college hockey scouts. Performance is excellent, no caching required, and the implementation is seamless, just feed html directly to FS and voila, on-the-fly PDF reports.
