It can't, but it'd probably only be a few hours work to add. We'd just need to plug the rendering library we're using into an image encoder rather than a windowing library. There might also be some extra work required to do tiling if you wanted a screenshot that is the full height of the HTML page (bigger than will fit in a single GPU texture), but I can't imagine that would be too hard.

That’d be an amazing extension with lots of potential to mix up the existing Screenshot aaS business. I’m no Rust dev, so I can’t help here, but I’ll follow the project closely!

Given general css support is not complete, would you really want a screenshot of something that might look radically different on a commonly used browser?
