    Generate link previews, inspired by Slack. (by saket)

  • unfurl is not very different from your gist. It is slightly more comprehensive by supporting both Open Graph Protocol and Twitter Cards, plus falls back to back to reading HTML head tags. It is also extensible for websites that use javascript and can't be scraped such as twitter.

  • crux
