   Great app - resolves the limitations of other doc/merge apps

   We wanted an app that would allow for custom branding and layout, the font of our choice, and merge fields across our main SF objects. Previously we used DocGen, which led to a morass of configuration to put fields in exactly the place they needed to be for the tables, as well as a bunch of SOQL queries to manage conditional logic. The VF doc generator can't accommodate the fonts we use in our branding. And so DocRaptor has been the perfect solution.

   Our developer built the contracts, and we went live within weeks with complete branding, flexibility in the data merges (we were able to remove a ton of bad config) and it's easy to manage.

   👍 Pros:    Flexible|Great customer support|Super fast

   The best HTML to PDF solution

   I have been using DocRaptor for 6 years, both for my professionnal and personnal projects. After trying several free and/or open source HTML to PDF solutions, I was happy to find this service. It's the most efficient solution, which generates the most accurate PDF documents.

   Since it's a SaaS service, there is nothing to install, no library dependencies nor experimental software that you're not sure it will be supported in the future.

   There is a lot of options and CSS rules to dig in if you want to get PDF files that exactly matches what you want. But the other solutions I tried didn't have these options, and the result was not good enough.

   🏁 Competitors: pdfmatrix.com, SelectPdf, pdflayer, Api2Pdf, PDFCrowd

   👍 Pros:    Simple api|No dependencies|Best pdf result|A lot of options to help you create the pdf you need|Good customer support

   👎 Cons:    A lot of css rules to learn if you want to get the perfect pdf of your dreams... but at least these rules exist!

• SwiftUI vs. UIKit: What is the best choice for building an iOS user interface in 2024?

  As an iOS engineer, you've likely encountered SwiftUI and UIkit, two popular tools for building iOS user interfaces. SwiftUI is the new cool kid on the block, providing a clean way to build iOS screens, while UIkit is the older and more traditional way to build screens for iOS. SwiftUI uses a declarative style where you describe how the UI should look, similar to Jetpack Compose in Android. UIkit, on the other... - Source: dev.to / 4 months ago

• How To Build a Web Application with HTMX and Go

  All that's left is adding a little style. I won't claim to be a frontend engineer or a UI designer, so I just used UIKit to easily add modern-looking style to the HTML table and buttons. As mentioned throughout the article, the CSS classes and other small details are excluded since they are not directly relevant to the tutorial. See the full example on GitHub to try running it for yourself. - Source: dev.to / 6 months ago

• On the search for a truly "good" UI framework.

  Can try UIKIT out if you're looking around, I've used it solely for some quick slider stuff in certain projects and use it fully in others. The docs are pretty good and they have a discord community that's fairly active. Source: 12 months ago

• What ui component framework would you recommend to an entry level "backend" dev

  I personally like UI Kit, they provide the css and js for basic components that look good. Just use their documentation as a reference, copy and paste the HTML with classes. Source: about 1 year ago

• Beginner needs help: Looking for an easy-to-use/learn headless CMS + Frontend + CSS website solution? Overwhelmed.

  ProcessWireProcessWire is a fantastic CMS/CMF (content management framework) and I think it is a good fit for your skills. Works with any front end CSS although my personal preference is UIkitUIkit. Source: over 1 year ago

• Launch HN: Onedoc (YC W24) – A better way to create PDFs

  It sounds like this is as advanced as DocRaptor[1]. They have what I consider to be the best PDF generation API, giving complete control over the documents you need to create. The pricing is similar. If you'd rather do it for free weasyprint[2] is the best open source alternative. Another more affordable option you might want to consider is Urlbox[3]. (Disclosure: I work on this) Urlbox's rendering engine is based... - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• How do you generate PDF reports from HTML?

  We built the DocRaptor API to let developers have affordable access to the commercial Prince PDF engine. We have Node code examples throughout the documentation. Source: almost 2 years ago

• What is the best online HTML to PDF converter?

  I'd argue our service, DocRaptor, is the best because it's the only one powered by the Prince PDF engine. Unlike open-source, browser-based conversion engines, Prince was custom-built just for converting HTML into PDFs and offers a lot of unique functionality for making more complex PDFs.

• Is it possible to render a RazorPage (inc. CSS) to a PDF file and download via WebAPI?

  I work for https://docraptor.com, which is an HTML to PDF API. We have a C# agent. Source: about 3 years ago
