Post embeds already carry author-provided alt text in the appview response (images, gallery items, and video), but bskyweb dropped it when extracting og:image thumbnails, so link previews and crawlers never saw an image description. Extend extractPostMedia to return thumb+alt pairs and emit og:image:alt / twitter:image:alt after each og:image / twitter:image when the alt text is non-empty. Video posts use the video's alt text for the poster thumbnail. JSON-LD callers flatten via a new imageURLs helper so image[] strings stay byte-identical to og:image. Related to the spirit of #8033 (alt text on link card images), but on the bskyweb OpenGraph output side.

Build / Develop
SPA Bundle (monolithic static javascript file)
To build the SPA bundle (bundle.web.js), first get a JavaScript development
environment set up. Either follow the top-level README, or something quick
like:
# install nodejs
nvm install
nvm use
npm install --global pnpm
# setup tools and deps (in top level of this repo)
pnpm install --frozen-lockfile
# run pnpm web dev server, if you wanted
pnpm web
Then build and copy over the big 'ol bundle.web.js file:
# in the top level of this repo
pnpm build-web
Golang Daemon
Install golang. We generally develop against the current stable release of the language, as declared in go.mod.
In this directory (bskyweb/):
# re-build and run daemon
go run ./cmd/bskyweb serve
# build and output a binary
go build -o bskyweb ./cmd/bskyweb/
The easiest way to configure the daemon is to copy example.env to .env and
fill in auth values there.
