What is the Error & Log generator?
An error and log image tool color-codes log levels — ERROR, WARN, INFO and DEBUG — and softens timestamps and stack frames so the failure leads. Turn a noisy console dump into a clean image for a bug report, an incident write-up or a teaching example.
Codeshot is free and runs entirely in your browser — no account, no watermark, and nothing you paste is uploaded. Export a retina PNG or a scalable SVG, or copy the image straight to your clipboard.
When to use it
- Bug reports and GitHub issues
- Incident and postmortem write-ups
- Debugging tutorials
- Monitoring and on-call updates
Why use Codeshot for error log screenshot?

Stack traces that read clean
Indented frames and timestamps are softened so the error message leads.
Bug-report ready
Drop a clear image into an issue or chat instead of a wall of pasted text.

Error & Log — frequently asked questions
Which log levels are recognized?+
ERROR and FATAL, WARN, INFO, and DEBUG or TRACE. Their keywords are highlighted and timestamps are dimmed; other text renders plainly.
Does it need a specific format?+
No. Codeshot looks for common level keywords anywhere in a line, so most log formats work out of the box.
What can I export, and is it free?+
Export a high-resolution PNG or a scalable SVG, or copy straight to your clipboard. Codeshot is completely free — no account, no watermark, no limits.
Do I need an account or any software to install?+
No. Codeshot runs entirely in your web browser — there is nothing to download or install, and no sign-up, login or email is required. Open the page, paste your content and export.
Can I use the exported images commercially?+
Yes. You keep all rights to the content you paste and the images you create, and you can use them in commercial blog posts, courses, slides, documentation and social media at no cost. There is no watermark on any export.
Can I customize the theme, font, background and size?+
Yes. Choose from a dozen real editor themes (Dracula, Night Owl, One Dark, GitHub and more), premium self-hosted fonts, gradient, solid or transparent backdrops, light or dark window modes, and adjustable padding, font size, shadow and window controls.
Does Codeshot work on mobile and in every major browser?+
Codeshot works in modern browsers on desktop and mobile, including Chrome, Firefox, Safari and Edge. A larger screen makes fine-tuning the frame easier, but you can create and export an image from a phone or tablet too.
