Developer-focused creation
Created a dedicated workflow for turning code into polished, shareable visuals.
01
Why
Developers share code as plain screenshots that look unstyled, and designers cannot easily control how a code block looks.
02
Decision
A browser editor where you write or paste code, pick a language and a theme, then tune the size, padding and background of the block with a live preview. You can export it as an image or save it and share an embed link. Settings persist between visits.
03
Trade-offs
The result is an image, so exported blocks look much alike everywhere. There is no very different approach available, and that is a limit of the tool.
04
Outcome
A live tool built end to end with React, TypeScript, Tailwind and Firebase.
