Placard enables you to create high-quality rasterized badges with the power of HTML and CSS.
GET /r/<payload>.webp?width=<n>
GitHub, npm, Docker Hub, PyPI, Discourse, Fedora,
and dozens of other upstream services: Placard
already knows how to talk to them. Drop a
data-preset attribute on any element
and the value gets fetched and baked into the image
at render time.
Placard renders HTML and CSS straight to a PNG or WebP file, no browser, no headless Chrome, no JavaScript runtime on either end.

Just HTML and CSS, no proprietary templating language.
Edit the HTML and CSS on the left, watch the rasterized output update on the right. No install required.
