How do websites generate screenshots with an inspect element link?

[Shubham Shah]

There are various websites that generate screenshots for the items listed on their website/using an inspect element link. I was wondering how this is done? We are planning to launch our own site but are stuck at how to do this process. Any help is appreciated.

You would have to somehow implement the algorithm the CS:GO client uses to turn item data (plus the texture and model files) into a rendered image.

Do you have an example for this?

No, that kind of thing would be a trade secret I'd imagine.
