My decade long, carefully maintained collection of 700+ handy web dev & design bookmarks. Delve in to my toolkit!
Sure! PHP makes it really simple. I use https://github.com/spatie/browsershot that just makes its way through a JSON feed of the links on a cronjob. I host a lot of stuff on a single VPS so its super flexible.

[Showoff Saturday] 10+ years of collecting web dev/design resources in one easy to discover web dev toolkit 🧰 (link in comments)
I used https://github.com/spatie/browsershot along with the WP REST API on a cronjob. I actually used it for social preview images too! https://twitter.com/addy_codes. Each link has a hidden page that builds the social preview in HTML then the screenshot tool screenshots it for me.
