Code to Image Converter
Create beautiful, shareable images of your code snippets.
About the Code to Image Converter
We created this tool for developers, writers, and educators who need to share code snippets in a clean, visually appealing way. Pasting raw code into social media, presentations, or documents often looks messy and loses all formatting. This tool transforms your code into a high-resolution image with beautiful syntax highlighting, making it perfect for tutorials, tweets, and articles.
Our goal was to make a converter that gives you complete creative control. You can choose from multiple programming languages, select a theme you love, customize the window style, and even set a beautiful gradient background. It's all done in your browser, so your code is never uploaded to a server.
How to Use the Tool
- Paste your code into the text area and select the correct programming language from the dropdown.
- Customize the look and feel using the "Style," "Window," and "Background" controls in the left panel.
- Choose a syntax highlighting theme, show or hide the window toolbar, adjust padding, and select a background gradient.
- Use the "Scale" slider to increase the resolution of the final image.
- The preview on the right will update in real-time.
- When you're happy with the result, enter a filename and click "Download Image" to save your creation as a high-quality PNG file.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does the syntax highlighting work?
This tool uses Prism.js, a lightweight and powerful syntax highlighter. When you select a language, we tell Prism how to interpret your code, and it applies different colors to keywords, variables, strings, and comments to make your code much easier to read.
Why should I use an image of my code?
Images of code are perfect for sharing on platforms where you can't embed a proper code block, like Twitter, Instagram, or in a Microsoft Word document. An image guarantees that your code will look exactly the same everywhere, with all its colors and formatting intact.
Can I customize the background?
Yes. We have provided a gallery of modern, beautiful gradient presets to get you started. You can also create your own custom gradient by picking two colors and setting the angle with the sliders. This lets you match the image to your brand or presentation theme.
What happens to the code I enter?
Nothing. This tool runs entirely in your web browser. All the syntax highlighting and image generation happens locally on your computer. Your code is never sent to our servers, ensuring your data remains completely private and secure.
