Hi HN!<p>If you run any kind of automation with a browser, you know how difficult it can be to get screenshots that look like they would in a real browser.<p>Puppet Master is a simple REST API to allow you to grab screenshots and PDFs of any web page, rendered in real Chrome. It’s totally free to try!<p>It’s built on top of Headless chrome, but because it’s a REST API, using it is as simple as calling a URL, making it perfect if you&#x27;re unable to run Headless Chrome in your environment. It also scales infinitely because it’s built on top of a serverless architecture, and the pricing scales with your usage.<p>Puppet Master has been built on top of saasify.sh, a platform we’re building to make it easy to turn your open source software into a fully functional SaaS product. We all love open source, and believe that open source developers should be able to make an income from their valuable projects!<p>All feedback warmly welcomed!
