Elixir Code Screenshot Generator

Turn Elixir snippets into images worth sharing, without leaving your Mac.

Elixir's pipelines are one of the few things that genuinely read better as an image than as text, because the shape is the argument.

Codeshot detects Elixir from the code you paste, so there is no language picker to get wrong. Here is the same snippet in three of the 30 themes it ships with, rendered with the app's own stylesheets.

defmodule Snapshot do
  def export(code, opts \\ []) do
    code
    |> render(opts[:theme] || "xcode")
    |> scale(opts[:scale] || 2)
    |> save(opts[:path])
  end
end

Choosing a theme for Elixir

Keep the whole pipeline in one frame. A pipeline split across a crop loses the exact thing you were showing.

Getting the size right

Let the image follow your content, or lock it to a ratio — 1:1, 4:3, 3:2, 16:9, 9:16, 2:3, or 3:4 — then export at 1×, 2×, or 3× so it stays sharp on a retina display. Copy it straight to the clipboard with ⌘⇧C, or save with ⌘S.
