We actually used wkhtmltopdf before we started using pdf-bot. wkhtmltopdf development has slowed a lot, it is very unstable and you need to run a 2 year old alpha version to support flexbox (if I remember correctly) :-) headless chrome is a lot more stable choice imo.

That is a cool idea! Would only require to setup a small server as webhook endpoint that creates the e-mail.
Yeah I think Puppeteer is a very cool project. Unfortunately, it came out literally one or two days after i finished the initial version of pdf-bot. Maybe I will incorporate it soon! :-)
Appreciate it. EmailThis lookes very cool! I have considered using Puppeteer for pdf-bot, it came out right after I finished it :-)

I made a VS Code plugin for Prettier

It is my first VS code extension so have no idea if it is correct way. Feedback is welcome.
