## What it is
CodeImage is a web application for creating beautiful, customizable screenshots of source code snippets, with syntax themes, window frames, and sharing/export features. It is built as a PNPM monorepo with a SolidJS front-end and a Fastify/Prisma REST API.

## Use cases
- create beautiful code screenshots for social media posts
- beautify code snippets with custom themes and window frames
- share and embed code snippets with a link
- generate polished images of code for blog posts or tweets
- manage and organize code snippets in one place

## When to choose
- you want attractive code screenshots for Twitter/X, docs, or presentations without manual image editing
- you prefer an open-source, self-hostable alternative to tools like Carbon or ray.so
- you need theme, background, and window-style customization for snippets

## When to avoid
- you need a CLI or API for automated screenshot generation at scale
- you only need syntax highlighting in an editor rather than shareable images
- you require offline-only usage without any server component

- artifact type: application

- domain: developer-tools, web-development, frontend
