About
- What is this
- This tool autogenerates "open graph" social media cover images with a simple GET request to our API. The resulting URL can be later hotlinked in your articles and posts, no need to save/upload the image. The most popular use-case is to embed the URL-generating code right into your CMS backend.
- Free forever
- We will never monetise this.
- Why even build it
- The existing free alternatives are sometimes buggy, the existing paid alternatives are sometimes ridiculously overpriced.
- Tech stack
- The backend is on ASP.NET Core (because it's fast), uses "Skia" for image manipulation (portable C++ library from Google), and works behind Cloudflare's caching CDN.
