PHP teams often need rendered output for content review, support tooling, product operations, or customer-facing exports.

The Snapshot Site PHP SDK gives them that without building a custom HTTP client layer first.

Install

composer require snapshot-site/php-sdk

Why this works well in PHP stacks

The SDK is a good fit for:

  • Laravel admin workflows
  • Symfony services
  • WordPress publishing review tools
  • custom back-office apps that need screenshots or compare jobs

Typical examples

Teams can use it to:

  • generate screenshots for reports
  • analyze a page before publishing
  • compare staging and production after a release candidate
  • save returned images locally with downloadTo()

Keep the backend simple

Instead of wiring curl calls in every project, the SDK gives you one client with:

  • screenshot()
  • analyze()
  • compare()

That keeps the integration readable and easier to maintain over time.
