Generate dynamic social preview images
Snaplink lets you generate custom link preview images for your webpages from code ✨
1 - Design your preview with HTML / CSS and {{vars}} 2 - Copy your generated Snaplink URL 3 - Paste it as your site
Hey PH, Snaplink.dev co-founder here 👋
Social preview images are designed to show users a snippet of your webpages when shared: it's the first thing users see, like a storefront, a social preview image should be informative and awesome.
Strangely, we often see websites using the same static preview image on all their pages, or sometimes no preview image at all. Even big sites like Reddit and Twitter show boring and unhelpful previews on most of their pages…
Why? Because creating social previews that changes according to dynamic page content is a real headache for developers.
We built Snaplink to provide an easy way for developers to generate beautiful dynamic preview images programmatically. It does that by generating images on-the-fly from a template you design in HTML / CSS and variables injected in the URL itself.
Here are a few example templates:
Zink.tips profile pages (preview of the user with some metrics): https://snaplink.dev/11ec144ef0?...
Feather blog articles (showing article title, author, etc...): https://snaplink.dev/0fc7eca4e9?...
Features: - Plug-and-play online editor - Design your social preview with HTML / CSS and {{vars}} - One-line integration in your code - Free and no account required
