Blogging should be focused on writing great content. But writers, myself included, spend a ton of time creating link preview images to share on social.
Mugshot Bot automates the process, across your entire blog. Drop in one line of HTML and when you share your post on Twitter or Facebook a dynamic image is generated based on your content.
Pro accounts can automate images for their entire blog via a URL, including color and theme customizations. Free (forever!) accounts need to create images via the web UI first.
To celebrate the launch I've set aside some 50% off lifetime deals. There are a limited number available and will lock in your discounted rate forever. I hope you enjoy using Mugshot Bot as much as I enjoyed building it! Let me know if you have any questions on how I built it or what's coming next.
Ultralight Mugshot BotBeing an agency, this tool helps us to much faster get og:image tags organised. Also, it organizes the design already. We want to focus on code and thus are not designers...

What I'd really like to see with CEF et al, is JS being dropped, in favor of directly controlling the DOM from the host language. Then we could, for example, write a Rust (or Kotlin, Zig, Haskell, etc) desktop application that simply directly manipulated the DOM, and had it rendered by a HTML+CSS layout engine. Folks could then write a React-like framework for that language (to help render & re-render the DOM in... - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago
> I hope Electron/CEF die soon, and people get back to building applications that don't consume hundreds of megabytes of RAM to render a hello world. Web technologies are fine, but what we really need is some kind of lightweight browser which allows you to use HTML/CSS/JS, but with far lower memory usage. I found https://ultralig.ht/ which seems to be exactly what I am looking... - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago
I'm curious if the project will be open-source or do you have plans to go the Awesomium/Ultralight route with both open/closed sources and volume licenses? Or do you plan to offer commercial support services like other open source software? Source: 10 months ago
I’m not tied to any language, but it needs to be able to wrap a c++ library. I started with .NET 7 MAUI - no linux support & very mobile focused. Tried out Electron. Wins on ease and usability, but has massive overhead. (Basic “Hello world” executable compiled to over 200mb) I then discovered Ultralight (https://ultralig.ht/). Big win on size, but was last updated 3 years ago. Source: 11 months ago

What an amazing story the one from Joe where he tells us how he built, scaled, and sold MugShotBot in 14 months! - Source: dev.to / over 2 years ago
Does anyone know how to find the implementation / service in use at github for this? The blog post has no additional details, nothing. I dug deep into this topic a few weeks ago and actually build a svg + placeholder => png render service. Also found https://mugshotbot.com/, which seem quite nice, but my approach is more a "bring your own svg". - Source: Hacker News / about 3 years ago
