Website Screenshot Generator

Paste HTML (or a full snippet) and render it to a downloadable PNG entirely in your browser. Arbitrary external URLs cannot be captured client-side — here is why, and what does work.

1. HTML to capture

Local
Browser-only, by design. This tool cannot screenshot arbitrary external URLs — browser security (CORS / same-origin policy) prevents reading pixels from pages you don't control, and we never use external services. Paste your own HTML below to render and download it as a PNG.

2. Result

Your rendered image will appear here.
About this tool

About Website Screenshot Generator

The Website Screenshot Generator renders HTML you paste into a downloadable PNG entirely in your browser. It is honest about a real limitation: arbitrary external URLs cannot be captured client-side, so it works from markup you provide rather than from a live address.

Capturing your own HTML locally is private and immediate, with no server rendering your page. It suits turning a snippet or component into an image without a screenshot service.

How to use

Step by step

  1. Paste the HTML or snippet you want to render.
  2. The tool renders it on a canvas in your browser.
  3. Review the rendered output.
  4. Download it as a PNG.

Best practices

Tips for best results

  • Provide self-contained HTML with inline or accessible styles for the most faithful render.
  • For a live external page, use a browser or dedicated service, since client-side code cannot capture it.
  • Check that referenced images are reachable, or embed them, so they appear in the output.
Common mistakes to avoid

Pitfalls to watch for

  • Expecting it to screenshot any live URL; browsers cannot capture arbitrary external pages client-side, so paste the markup instead.
  • Referencing external assets that are blocked, which leaves gaps in the render.
  • Assuming complex scripted layouts render identically; provide self-contained markup for best results.

FAQ

Common questions

No — and no honest browser-only tool can. Browser security (CORS and the same-origin policy) blocks reading the pixels of pages you do not control. This tool captures HTML you provide instead, with no external services.
Your HTML is wrapped in an SVG foreignObject and drawn to a canvas, which you can download as a PNG. It works best for self-contained HTML and inline styles.
Images from other domains can taint the canvas and block export. Use inline data-URI images, or images from the same origin, for a clean capture.
No. Rendering and capture happen entirely in your browser.
Private by design

This runs entirely in your browser

No file or text you enter here is uploaded. Encoding and decoding happen on your device using native browser APIs — close the tab and nothing remains on a server.
