Oembed.link is a simple script, designed to run as a Cloudflare Worker, which renders embeds using the oEmbed API and renders the embed.

It is designed primarily to make archiving embeds easier by providing a fixed URL which represents only the embed rendered on a page.

The URL is https://oembed.link/<URL> to be rendered.

The script uses the oEmbed providers JSON, https://oembed.com/providers.json

The source for the oembed.com site can be found at: https://github.com/iamcal/oembed

The system is designed to run as a Cloudflare Worker. See Cloudflare Docs for more info on how to use this service.
