tlapse is a small Node.js CLI utility that periodically takes screenshots of a website during development using Puppeteer, letting you assemble a timelapse of your work. It runs alongside your dev server via npm scripts.
Use cases
- create a timelapse video of my web development session
- automatically take periodic screenshots of localhost while coding
- capture high-resolution screenshots of my site at intervals
- record visual progress of a frontend project
- snapshot a webpage every few seconds during development
When to choose
- you want automatic interval-based screenshots of a local dev site
- you want to make a timelapse of your coding progress
- you prefer a simple npm-installed CLI with Puppeteer under the hood
When to avoid
- you need actively maintained tooling (last release 2018)
- you need full-page or multi-page screenshot features beyond intervals
- you need video encoding built in rather than raw screenshots
