feedbackplus

FeedbackPlus is an open source Javascript library that allows you to add screenshot taking & screenshot editing functionality to your feedback forms.

Available for use by cdn or via npm

The project is inspired by Google's report an issue widget, which allows you to take & edit screenshots. Under the hood, it uses the browser display API and fallbacks to html2canvas if available (see here)

feedbackPlus.showEditDialog(bitmap, function (canvas) {
    // user completed edit
    FeedbackPlus.canvasToBitmap(canvas).then(({ bitmap }) => {
      canvas.getContext("2d").drawImage(bitmap, 0, 0);
      feedbackPlus.closeEditDialog();
    });
  }, function () {
    // user cancelled edit
    feedbackPlus.closeEditDialog();
});
