ZX Spectrum SCR to PNG Converter

Scratching my own itch. I had to do this for showing information on ZX Spectrum games. So thought I'd turn it into a useful tool for other people to use.

ZX Spectrum SCR to PNG Converter launched on January 17, 2025 with 33 votes, #553 of 6,141 launches that month and more than 90% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 1 year on.

In plain words

ZX Spectrum SCR to PNG Converter transforms screenshot files from ZX Spectrum games into PNG image format. The tool was created to help display ZX Spectrum game information and is designed for retro gaming enthusiasts, developers, and archivists who need to convert and share classic computer game screenshots in modern formats.

    Hi everyone, I build some "online" converters as a side project in the last weeks. The difference to existing conversion websites is, that my converters don't upload your files. Everything happens in your browser on your device (with the help of a lot of great Open Source Javascript libraries). I think privacy is an essential feature for a service like this, so my converters also don't use google analytics or any other form of tracking (in fact they use no external resources at all). I started this because I ended up with some .heic files from my iPhone and had to use ImageMagick every time…

    I realized that the PDF engines of modern desktop browsers (PDFium and PDF.js) support JavaScript with enough I/O primitives to make a basic game like Tetris. It was a bit tricky to find a union of features that work in both engines, but in the end it turns out that showing/hiding annotation "fields" works well to make monochrome pixels, and keyboard input can be achieved by typing in a text input box. All in all it's quite janky but a nice reminder of how general purpose PDF scripting can be. The linked PDF is all ASCII so you can just open it in a text editor, or have a look at…

    I originally built this app to organize and reuse interesting React + Tailwind components I came across on Twitter, inspired by the shadcn/ui approach. Later, a friend started contributing their own components, and it got me thinking—this could grow into something bigger, like an NPM for design engineers to share and use components. Would love to hear your thoughts!
