Carbon turns a snippet of code into a clean, shareable image. You paste your code, choose a syntax theme, adjust the padding and window controls, and export a PNG. The result looks good enough to post on social media, use in slides, or drop into documentation. It supports most popular languages and has a range of themes that match common editor styles.

Developers use it for sharing code on Twitter, illustrating blog posts, and creating visual assets for presentations. There is also an API and a CLI for generating images in automated workflows. It is not a tool you use every day, but when you need to show code to people who are not looking at a terminal, it solves the problem quickly and cleanly.
