Alekhya is sanskrit word which means image in english

Prototype for generating code images from text using Shiki and Nuxt 4. As a USP it allows you to retrieve code snippet as PNG image via API call thanks to pi0/shiki-image.

import { Buffer } from 'node:buffer'

const code = 'console.log("Hello World!")'
const encoded = Buffer.from(code).toString('base64')

const code = 'console.log("Hello World!")'
const encoded = btoa(
  new TextEncoder().encode(code).reduce(
    (data, byte) => data + String.fromCharCode(byte),
    ''
  )
)

import base64

code = 'console.log("Hello World!")'
encoded = base64.b64encode(code.encode()).decode()

take raw code → convert to bytes → encode as Base64

Use any of your preferred tools to make API call to above URL

• code: The base64 encoded code to generate an image for.
• lang: The programming language of the code (e.g., js, python). (View all Supported languages)
• theme: The theme to use for the code image (e.g., dracula, github). (View all Supported themes)

• You can generate code snippet in your build pipeline or automation
• Directly render various code snippets as image in your docs
• Add PR for your ideas 😜

• Code image generator
  • Allow downloading, copying images in various formats
  • Add UI like editor window
  • more...
• [-] Provide API to retrieve code images
  • API with basic features
  • Allow UI customization
