HTML viewer

Paste HTML code or open an .html file and see the rendered page right away, with its CSS and JavaScript. Check it at phone or tablet width, read console errors, then save it as a file, a PDF or an image. Free, no signup, and your code stays in your browser.

Console

PDF and PNG open the HTML to PDF or HTML to image converter with your code filled in; they render it in real Chromium on our server (5 free renders a day).

How the preview works

Your code runs in a sandbox. The preview is an <iframe sandbox="allow-scripts"> without same-origin rights, so scripts run, but they can't read this site's storage or cookies. Nothing is uploaded: the page renders from your browser's memory.
Widths are real viewport widths. Phone 390 lays the page out in a 390 px wide viewport and scales it down to fit, so media queries like @media (max-width: 600px) fire exactly as on a phone. Fit uses the width of the preview box.
The console shows console.log, warn and error calls, uncaught errors with their line number, and unhandled promise rejections. It is cleared on every run.
External files load normally: stylesheets, scripts, fonts and images from absolute https:// URLs (a CDN, Google Fonts) work. Relative paths like style.css don't, because there is no folder to load them from: paste the CSS into a <style> tag.
Opening a file: .html, .htm and .svg files are read locally. Your last code is not saved anywhere, so download it before you close the tab.

Turn the HTML into a PDF or an image

Viewing HTML is often the step before sharing it: an email template, an invoice, a certificate or a social card. Save as PDF and Save as PNG send the code to our converters, which render it in headless Chromium, so the output matches what you see here (web fonts are waited for, backgrounds are printed). From your own code, the same render is one API call:

curl -X POST https://shotmint.creasework.com/v1/pdf -H "X-API-Key: YOUR_KEY" -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"html": "<h1>Hello</h1>", "format": "A4"}' -o page.pdf

Use /v1/screenshot with "full_page": true for a PNG. A free key has 25 renders, and paid credits never expire. See the API docs.

FAQ

Why doesn't my page look the same as in my browser? The usual causes are relative links to CSS or images (see above), or a script that waits for a DOMContentLoaded event that already fired. Errors show up in the console panel.

Can I view the HTML source of a website? This viewer renders code you paste. To see how a live URL renders, use the website screenshot tool; to get its text, use website to Markdown.

Is there a size limit? Not in the viewer itself; very large pages (several MB) can make typing slow, so switch Update to "On Run only".
