Whenever I’ve had to build PDF features I’ve found it tedious, and thought it should be easier.<p>Paperplane is basically an API layer on top of autoscaling servers running headless Chrome.<p>There are a couple of features that make this a little different to other solutions out there: automatic uploads to S3 and the ability to queue up batches of documents and be notified via webhook when they’ve been converted to PDF.<p>If you’re looking for a solution like this or are already using something similar, it’d be great to hear any feedback!
