Instantly share code snippets from VS Code with shortcut. Supports all programming languages. No sign-up, no hassle. Perfect for quick code reviews, debugging, or showing off your work.
Something is interfering with scroll on your website. Let's please all stop letting things interfere with scrolling. This could definitely just be a personal preference but even Apple, who should be able to do it well, fills the page with scroll effects that just don't feel good. Especially on mobile which by now is the primary device for web browsing. Rant over. I'm sure it's not the authors fault and just some unnecessary code in the template.
I came for the snippet share because I was intrigued. The info on the site didn't really explain what to expect. It shows me how to install it but what does it do? Put an example link maybe? Does it create an image? Does it link back to remote repo?
Thanks so much for the honest feedback- really appreciate you taking the time to share it.
I’ll definitely look into the scroll behavior on mobile and clean up anything unnecessary.
Also noted that the purpose of the site isn’t very clear - I’ll work on a better explanation and add a live example link.
Yeah, GistPad is solid! I built something similar but focused more on quick sharing and a cleaner, read-only view. Simpler and faster for lightweight use cases.
Thanks for pointing that out! You're right - the indentation looks a bit off in SnippetShare compared to VS Code. I’ll take a look and see if we can make it match better. Appreciate the feedback!
Great question! The main advantage is quick sharing with syntax highlighting and a clean read-only view. It’s also easier to reference in chats or discussions.
Thanks for the suggestion! That’s a great idea! I’ll add a sample snippet link so people can preview what it looks like without having to create one first. Appreciate the feedback!!
Your website adds "discovering". How do you discover snippets with this? Is there a list of shared snippets? Or do you have to be given a specific link to see one?
Good point! At the moment, snippets can only be viewed if you have the link there’s no public list or explore page yet. I used “discovering” more in the sense of easily sharing and revisiting, but yeah, I get how that might sound confusing. Thanks for bringing it up!
Teams / Slack etc allow instant code snippet sharing. As far as syntax highlighting goes - 5 seconds after someone receives your code snippet they can copy and paste into their own editor.
No need to install YAVSCE (Yet another VS Code Extension)
This in probably more a reflection of my constant journey towards KISS and in no way is meant to be disrespectful about the extension.
