puppeteer-pdf-generator

It will generate a pdf using the client component (it can be any tech i.e backbone, react, angular).

How it works

Let's assume you have React, Angular, Backbone or any Javascript UI which is running on http://localhost:3000. and the server is running on http://localhost:3001. Now when you want to download the pdf we will hit the API (http://localhost:3001/export/pdf)

Internally server starts a headless browser and opens http://localhost:3000 application and creates the pdf (i.e print layout).

Note: Server-side pdf generator code is hardcoded so you will get same pdf every time.

How to run
