is it possible to dump the html that the terminal renders?

First of all, fantastic job! 🥳

Since this browser deals with javascript would be great to wait until the DOMContentLoaded event and get a snapshot how the HTML looks like. The use case would be that instead of using old curl you could query a page that uses some JS framework, let's say react, and then you get how the page actually looks like after all that javascript:

Something like carbonyl https://google.fr --dump index.html

Thanks

Output would be a text stream with ANSI codes, isn't It?

I guess as long as it can be human readable (or easily converted) should be fine :)

Dump as an image is dumb, there are already other tools for that.

Output would be HTML. So for example if the input is <script>document.write("<"+"hr>")</script> the output would be <hr>

I think they are different things, you are asking about a dump of the DOM, that's already feasable. I'm talking about doing screenshots, but instead of imagen, text output.

That was what i was looking for, get the html page after the javascript run, is it possible now? How?

There's lote of other tools that can do It: Selenium, PhantomJS...

Yes you can do it using Selenium with Headless Chrome or Headless Firefox (or the no longer maintained PhantomJS), but that takes loads of RAM and sometimes hangs, so it would be nice to have a lighter weight alternative if possible. Edbrowse can do it but has more limited DOM support so it doesn't work on all sites.

I think RAM usage of Carbonyl would be similar to Chrome.

chromium already has --dump-dom if that's useful
