scarbon

Scarbon (Scuffed Carbon) is an elegant code renderer based off Carbon built 100% locally. Scarbon made using Shiki for highlighting, Prettier for formatting, and Canvas for rendering.

Example

The below snippet creates a render of itself

const Scarbon = require("scarbon");
const fs = require("fs");

(async () => {
  const render = await new Scarbon({
    theme: "Min Dark", // One of the default themes (Full list below)
    base: "transparent", // Color behind the codeblock
    width: 2048, // Set the width of the image
    radius: 32 // Set the radius of the codeblock corner
  });

  const code = fs.readFileSync(__filename, "utf8"); // Get current file contents
  const output = render.pretty(code); // Get file buffer

  fs.writeFileSync("code.png", output); // Write buffer to file
})();

Output image (code.png)
