How it works

sequenceDiagram
    User->>+gamer2810.github.io: Get Steam Miniprofile
    loop Every 5 minutes
        Note right of Pipedream: Glitch shutdowns the CORS Server<br>every 5 minutes, so we schedule a request<br> every 5 mins to wake it up, ensuring response time
        Pipedream->>CORS Server: Wake up
    end
    gamer2810.github.io->>-User: Return loading miniprofile
    Note right of User: Wait for real profile to load
    gamer2810.github.io->>+CORS Server: Get real profile HTML
    Note right of CORS Server: https://glitch.com/~steam-miniprofile-cors
    CORS Server->>+Steam: Get real profile HTML
    Steam->>-CORS Server: Requested HTML
    CORS Server->>-gamer2810.github.io:Profile HTML with CORS headers
    gamer2810.github.io-->User: Replace loading miniprofile with real HTML

Note

  • This works by calling Steam's API and render the response with Steam's CSS. This site is not affiliated with Steam or Valve.
  • Your profile will need to be public for this to work.
  • It will track your public status (Online, Offline), but it wont track your friend-only status (Away, Snooze,...).
  • If your AccountID is invalid, it will instead load MY (as in the one writing this) miniprofile :).
  • You might have to disable caching of the iframe on your web, or changes on Steam won't be reflected immediately.
