Code → SVG screenshot generator
Turn code or terminal output into an SVG screenshot. No ext-gd / Imagick — output is plain text suitable for git diffs and CI artifacts. ANSI SGR (16 / 256 / 24-bit truecolor + bold / italic / underline) becomes <tspan> in the SVG.
Install
composer require sugarcraft/candy-freezeQuickstart
use SugarCraft\Freeze\SvgRenderer;
$svg = SvgRenderer::dracula()
->withLineNumbers(true)
->withWindow(true)
->withPadding(24)
->render($code);
file_put_contents('out.svg', $svg);
// ANSI input is honoured — SGR colours become <tspan> segments.
$svg = SvgRenderer::dark()
->render("\x1b[31merror:\x1b[0m something broke");What's in the box
Pure-PHP SVGNo raster pipeline. The output is a text file — diffable, grep-able.
Window chromemacOS-style traffic-light controls, optional drop shadow, configurable border radius.
Line numbersOptional left-gutter line counter.
Five themesdark, light, dracula, tokyo-night, nord.
ANSI honouredPipe coloured terminal output through; SGR sequences become tspan colour spans.
Per-segment backgroundANSI background colours render as <rect> fills behind text.
LigaturesEnable font-variant-ligatures for code ligature rendering (→, >=, !==, etc.).
Language detectionHeuristic detection from shebang, filename extension, and content signatures.
